Creditors Payments Tab

From the Payments tab, which invoice(s) a payment was applied to can be seen, along with the date the payment was applied.

The date a payment was applied may be different to the actual payment date.

This is important as it can impact on the Aged Payables report (accessible from within a Creditors list). For example, a payment has been made but not applied to the invoices, therefore on the reports the invoices will show as owing and perhaps overdue, however there will be a credit showing in the month for the amount of that payment.

The default view shows only unallocated payments and/or credits (eg. returns or contras).

To view all payments and credits go to the Payments tab and tick Include fully allocated Payments. Filter the view by clicking Change Filter and selecting criteria as required.

Note: The From# field only relates to central billing.

Clicking the arrow symbol to the left of a payment that has been applied to invoices, will show details of the invoices, and the date the payment was applied to those invoices. In the expanded view below, there are two dates. The first is the date of the credit, which is the actual payment. The second is the date the payment was applied to the invoices, which may or may not be a different date.

This will provide a payment history for that creditor showing:
