    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
