Learn to remind customers about shop dues on WhatsApp. Check balances, permission and a sample message for fertiliser, seed and crop-care shops. Send manually.

Remind customers about pending shop payments on WhatsApp.

You do not need to type the full account each time. Open the correct customer, review the prepared message and send it from your own WhatsApp. This is not automatic messaging.

## Follow these 3 simple steps

### Check the customer’s current dues

Find the customer in their account or the dues list. Reconcile earlier credit, new bills, payments and goods returns. Dues on one bill may differ from the customer’s total balance.

### Check the number and permission

Keep the correct customer mobile number. Record WhatsApp reminder permission in customer details only with their consent. Use the existing customer instead of creating another account.

### Choose the reminder, then press Send

Use “WhatsApp yaad” in the customer account or the reminder option in the dues list. Review the name, number and amount in WhatsApp, edit the wording if needed and press Send yourself.

## Example: ₹3,200 is still due

- Earlier dues: ₹3,000
- Dues on a new bill: ₹2,200
- Payment received later: −₹2,000
- Current amount to remind about: ₹3,200

Illustrative account only. A real reminder uses the customer balance at that time. Preparing a message does not mean payment was received.
## Check the details once

- Are the customer, mobile number and WhatsApp permission correct?
- Have you recorded payments and returns before checking the balance?
- Have you reviewed the message and pressed Send in WhatsApp yourself?
## A polite payment reminder message

Example: Hello Ramesh ji, ₹3,200 is pending at our shop. Please make the payment when convenient. Thank you.

An illustrative wording, not the exact default app message. The app prepares a message with the customer, shop and balance. You can edit it in WhatsApp before sending.

## Bring notebook dues into the same customer account

Add the customer and record verified earlier dues from your notebook. Select that same customer for the next bill. Record only money actually received, including partial payments. Check the current balance before a reminder.

## For village fertiliser, seed and crop-care shops

Across villages and towns in Chhattisgarh, begin with one customer. Match the name, village and mobile number. You do not need separate accounts for each locality. This is shop accounting, not lending or guaranteed debt recovery.

## Preparing a message is not receiving payment

The reminder record means a link was prepared. The app does not confirm that a WhatsApp message was sent, delivered or read. Record payment only after money actually arrives. A reminder or promise to pay does not reduce dues.
## Your questions

### Are reminders sent automatically on a schedule?

No. Automatic, scheduled and bulk WhatsApp sending are not available. Open the reminder and press Send in your own WhatsApp.

### What if the number or customer permission is missing?

Confirm the correct details and obtain consent first. Do not send without permission. The online app blocks reminder preparation when the number or permission is missing.

### Why is a reminder blocked when the account is clear?

The online flow blocks payment reminders when no money is due. Customer credit is not money owed to your shop.

### What if the balance is wrong?

Do not send yet. Reconcile the notebook, bills, payments and returns. Correct the relevant record first; do not invent a bill or payment just to match a figure.

### What if WhatsApp does not open or the message is not sent?

Check connectivity and WhatsApp availability. Check whether the browser blocked a new tab. Review the correct number and balance before trying again. A reminder record is not delivery confirmation.

### Will the sample shop message a real farmer?

No. Sending reminders is blocked in the sample shop. Learn the flow there; send real customer reminders only from your real shop account.

### Is sharing a bill the same as a reminder?

No. Bill sharing describes a particular sale. A reminder refers to the customer’s current total dues. The amounts can mean different things.

### Is it currently free?

Krishi Udhar is currently free during beta, not promised permanently free. WhatsApp, mobile data and your own devices are separate arrangements.
