# Modes of payment **Mode of Payments** defines labels such as **Cash**, **GCash**, **Card**, etc. Every **treatment record** line **must** reference exactly one mode—this drives reporting on the **Sales** screen. ### Where to edit them Open **Mode of Payments** from the sidebar to **list**, **create**, and **edit** entries. ### Branch scope Payment modes belong to a **branch**. Switch branches in the header when configuring labels for each site. ### Link protection If a mode is still referenced by existing treatment lines, the system **blocks deletion** (similar to procedures) and surfaces how many lines depend on it. Use **inactive** or naming conventions if you need to retire a label without rewriting history. ### Plan requirement Like procedures and dentists, this area is included with **Starter** and above—you need treatment records unlocked to use it. --- # Agent Instructions: Querying This Documentation If you need additional information that is not directly available in this page, you can query the documentation dynamically by asking a question.
