Those are monies you collected as a "deposit" on the job prior to closing the invoice and paying the ticket in full.
Example...Engine job 5G, customer puts down 3G. You close books at end of day this will show as deposits. Job is completed you collect balance due..those are receipts. This is how I understand it. HTH, Jeff.

In addition to the traditional process of taking deposits for work, it is possible for users to unknowingly create these instances. Here's two examples:

1. The User doesn't convert to Invoice before taking payment; any payments against a Repair Order are seen as deposits
2. Payment is processed against an Invoice but the Invoice is not posted on the same date; this is seen as a deposit

I just double-checked with support and those are the two known typical causes.
