Enter the Payment Amount.
A list of outstanding invoices shows below the suppliers details.
A breakdown of payment allocation besides the supplier details tracks how the payment is disbursed. Balances update as payments are applied to invoices.
- Gross Amount: The total of payments allocated and discounts applied
- Discount: The total of any discounts applied to invoice payments
- Unallocated: The remainder of the payment to be allocated
- Net Amount: The total payment made to the Supplier excluding any discounts applied
Payment can be allocated individually to invoices, or select Auto Pay to apply the full payment to invoices.
Auto Pay
Auto Pay starts with the oldest invoice and works forwards until the payment is exhausted. The Paying Now column updates to reflect the payment allocations.
