A payment can be created without being directly linked to an accounting document, as in the case of an advance payment, for example. It can then be associated with one or more invoices. Here's how to do it:
- From the details of a payment, click on the pop-up button Modify payment breakdown
- Table: List of open items for this account proposes the various accounting documents (invoices and credit notes) with an outstanding balance other than 0, for the third party concerned by the payment. Select one or more of these documents.
- If necessary, in the table : Payment breakdowntable, adjust the amount paid by this payment for each selected accounting document.
The procedure described above applies regardless of the type of third party.
Good to know: For a selected accounting document, the value of the amount amount paid by this payment must be less than or equal to the amount of the accounting document. By the same token, the sum of the amounts paid by this payment must be less than or equal to the amount of the accounting document.
