About this tool
Create numbered payment receipts with payer, payment mode, amount in words and the balance still due on the invoice.
A payment receipt is the document a seller issues to acknowledge money that has actually been received, as distinct from an invoice, which only demands it. This generator numbers that receipt from a pattern you control, names the payment instrument and its reference, spells the amount in words in either Indian (lakh/crore) or short-scale (thousand/million) form, and works out the balance still outstanding as invoice total minus everything receipted so far. It is built for freelancers, studios and small businesses collecting part payments across borders in INR, USD, EUR, GBP, AED, SGD, AUD, CAD or JPY.

Balance due is computed as invoice total less all receipted payments, and flagged as an overpayment when it goes negative.
Indian receipts get lakh and crore grouping; international ones get thousand, million and billion.
Amounts round to the ISO 4217 minor units — two decimals for USD and INR, none for JPY.
An invoice requests payment; a receipt confirms payment was received. The invoice is raised when the work or goods are delivered, the receipt only once money lands, and one invoice can produce several receipts if the customer pays in instalments.
Serial, gapless numbering is the standard expectation of auditors and of most tax administrations because it makes suppressed receipts visible. Pick a pattern such as PREFIX-YEAR-SERIAL, restart the serial only at the start of a financial year, and never reuse or skip a number.
Because words cannot be altered by adding a digit, the written amount governs if it conflicts with the figures under long-standing commercial practice. It is why cheques and receipts both carry the line.
Receipt the full amount received and show the excess as a credit rather than silently capping it, then either refund it or set it against the next invoice. This tool marks that case as an overpayment so the surplus is visible on the document.
