# Creating your first Transaction/Checking out a Client

#### Appointment Checkout Process

After your appointment is scheduled, the next step involves checking out the client. Here’s how to do it:

1. **Select the Appointment**: Click on the scheduled appointment.
2. **Payment**: In the appointment window, click on **Pay Now** to access the Point of Sale (POS) system.
3. **Choose Payment Type**: At the top of the POS, select your preferred payment method.
4. **Complete Transaction**: Press the **Green Save button** to finalize the transaction.

Upon completion, a prompt displaying the receipt details will appear. If the payment is associated with an appointment, the appointment status will be automatically updated to "Paid."
