# Customer financing with your agent

Record a job paid by a financing company.

## What Doing Work provides

- `invoices.markPaidOutside` with method `financing`: records that the customer paid the invoice outside Doing Work, with the date and an optional note. Owner or office, or their agent.

## What your agent does

When the financing company confirms it paid, marks the invoice paid with method financing and the date, and notes the lender or loan number.

## Paste this into your agent

"My customer's invoice was paid by a financing company. Read https://doingwork.work/docs/agent-guides/financing/ first. Find the invoice, show it to me, and after I confirm, use invoices.markPaidOutside with method financing, the date paid and a note with the lender name."

## Limits

- Doing Work doesn't offer customer financing or partner with a lender today. The shop sets that up with its own lender.
- Recording it closes the invoice. Only do it once the money has arrived.
