    Since it sounds like the Order exists and you want to collect a deposit against the order.  You can use the Prepayment functionality to generate a prepayment invoice.  When the customer pays the prepayment invoice you would record the receipt as you would against a standard invoice.  The prepayment capability keeps the history of the prepayment against the order so when the final order is invoiced the owed amount is the total invoice less the prepayment amount.

    Use this to learn more: docs.microsoft.com/.../

    If you want to send a receipt of the payment there is a report you can get to from the customer list page called "Customer - Payment Receipt":

    I would like to receive an advance payment from the customer before the invoice is generated.

    just for the agreement confirmation.

    What is the method of entering the cash receipt page?

    With or without an invoice? You can post a cash receipt which relates to an invoice or not. Date wise you have some flexibility depending on posting date setup and accounting periods
