Personally speaking if you have granted them credit you should set them up as a customer in your accounting system. If you do not wish to do that you should be able to record it as Misc. Customer.
The entry would be as follows:
Dr. Accounts Receivable $6000
Cr. Sales Revenue $6000
When payment is received:
Dr. Cash
Cr. Accounts Receivable

Hope that helps
