How do I track a bridal deposit and balance?

Record the deposit taken to hold the date and mark the invoice partially paid, then record the balance when it lands. Cash Workspace keeps both figures side by side for your review; it does not collect the payment.

Should my booth rent go in the same place as client invoices?

Record booth rent as its own expense line, separate from client invoices, so your income and your rent obligation never blur together.

Where do consultation forms and color formulas go?

Attach them to the client's record so the formula, the form, and the invoice stay together from one appointment to the next.

An invoice tracker template for booth-renter stylists and beauty pros

Renting a booth means you run your own little business: color packages, bridal parties, add-on treatments, deposits to hold dates — and a booth-rent bill of your own to keep separate. A bridal booking with a deposit and a balance is easy to lose track of, and your booth rent gets tangled with client income if you don't record it apart. This template gives you one workspace to record each service and package invoice with deposits, add-ons, and status, while keeping your booth-rent expense line clearly its own.

The problem

Why booth-renter billing gets messy

Deposits, add-ons, and a separate rent obligation make a plain client list hard to read. Bridal bookings especially need both halves tracked.

A bridal deposit was taken to hold the date but the balance invoice is never marked, so you forget what's still owed.
Add-on services like a gloss, treatment, or extra updo trial don't get recorded, so packages bill light.
Your booth-rent expense gets mixed with client income, blurring what's yours versus the salon's.
A consultation form or color formula lives on a phone, not next to the client's invoice.
A bridal party of several people becomes one vague total with no per-service breakdown.

The workflow

Record packages, deposits, and rent cleanly

Capture each service or package as an invoice, track deposit and balance, and keep booth rent on its own line.

1
Record the booking
Record each service or package invoice with the client, service date, and the base package amount.
2
Track the deposit
For bridal and big bookings, record the deposit taken to hold the date and mark the invoice partially paid until the balance lands.
3
Add the add-ons
Record add-on services — gloss, treatment, trial, extra party members — as lines so packages bill complete.
4
Keep rent separate
Record your booth-rent payment as an expense line, separate from client invoices, so income and rent never blur.
5
Attach the forms
Attach the consultation form, color formula, and bridal contract to the client's record.

Service date: When the appointment or event is, so it lands in the right month.

Add-on services: Gloss, treatment, trial, or extra party members, recorded as lines so packages bill complete.
Booth-rent expense line: Your booth-rent payment recorded as an expense, kept separate from client income.
Status: Sent, deposit-paid, paid, or overdue, updated as payment lands.
Attached consultation / contract: The consultation form, color formula, and bridal contract filed on the record.
