Credit Card Processing supports taking deposits on documents during the sales order process.  This can be configured for whether cash receipts are created immediately, or whether they are created when the order is invoiced.

In Mission Control, launch the menu at the top right and select Settings.  Select the Mission Control setting category on the left, then click the Payments tab.  The Order Deposit Option setting provides two options: "Default" or "Create Cash Receipt".

• Default: Any deposits made for an order will become posted payments at the time the order is invoiced.  
• Create Cash Receipt: Any deposits made for an order will be created as cash receipts immediately after the payment has been taken.

For both options, the order amount will not be reflected in the customer's outstanding balance until it is invoiced.  Both options use the cash journal templates that are configured in BC, and they link created payments and cash deposits directly to the customer.  These payments and cash deposits can be viewed on BC's cash journals page.
