How to Add a Payment

Payments can be captured directly against an Invoice or added independently from the Payments page.

When you capture a Payment from an Invoice, the Payment is associated with that Invoice as part of the workflow.

Alternatively, you can add a Payment without an Invoice and allocate it to one or more eligible Invoices when required.
