I'm sure this question has been asked, I just can't find it. How do you change a payment from draft to paid?

Open the invoice (click on the date), click the red dollar sign, choose cash or check, then hit record payment.

I opened the invoice, but there is no red dollar sign on it anywhere......where should the red dollar sign be on the invoice?Open the invoice (click on the date), click the red dollar sign, choose cash or check, then hit record payment.

"Draft. An invoice that has been started but has not officially been "created" yet. Payments cannot be recorded for invoices in “draft” status. Once the invoice has been created it will change from "Draft" to "Unpaid" status."I opened the invoice, but there is no red dollar sign on it anywhere......where should the red dollar sign be on the invoice?

Hello I am curious how you all feel about paying $8 dollars or more a month for using the accounting portion of KK? I feel they have a monopoly on all providers who are using it for their food programs. They pretty much have all of Minnesota and I am sure many other states. My switch from MM to KK was a disaster and it has taken a year to get some things fixed. Now they are telling providers if you do not pay for the accounting portion you lose all access to it! I thought a provider was to keep at least 3 years 3 months of records. Since the program has been a nightmare for so many what are they doing with the money. How many providers use the program?

Yes, it is more than MM and I liked MM much better!!!!
You do have to keep three years of records and if you don't want to pay for KK you can always do paper copies of everything. I did that for years!!! I would do everything by hand and then at the end of the year put together something for my tax person.

I’d pay even more than $8 per month if I got all of my MM features back.

Print your records out and save them. Hello I am curious how you all feel about paying $8 dollars or more a month for using the accounting portion of KK?

Access to online storage will not be allowed if you don't pay the monthly fee but there is nothing that stops us from printing out our tax info and saving it for however many years you need to.
I am in MN too and I don't really see any of this as a big deal (other than KidKare is a PITA right now...). I feel lucky that our food programs (I've been with 2 different ones since I first opened) have paid for the accounting portion of MMK in the first place as I've heard of alot of providers that never got that perk from their food program agencies.
I plan on looking deeper into Quickbook and if I don't like it or feel it doesn't meet my needs, then I'll happily pay $8 a month (tax deductible) for access to Kid Kare just so long as the program continues to improve. As awful as it is right now, I can't imagine it could get worse...

Yeah, well if they make it worse, then the jokes on them because that means they were listening and if they were listening all along but still haven't done much improving as a result than that speaks volumes and serves as feedback for a program they are trying to sell us We now know if anything happens, they have seen what BC said and accepted the challenge
Not a very good marketing or sales strategy.
