Pay suppliers and allocate payables

Use Purchase Payment Doc to record supplier payments. Allocation matches actual money to outstanding documents; Accounts Payable itself is a query view.

Steps

1. Select the supplier in Accounts Payable and reconcile open documents against the supplier statement.
2. Create Purchase Payment Doc with the same supplier, Payment Reconciliation type, actual settlement account and date.
3. Enter Payment This Time against each document and any allowed round-down on that row. Their total must not exceed the outstanding amount.
4. Check the actual payment total, save and approve. Review each row even after using Auto-assign.
5. Recheck the original balances and account movement; leave unpaid remainders for later allocation.
