This guide will show you how to allocate a part payment against an invoice, for instances when a customer is wanting to pay regular payments over time.
If the customer is a cash customer (Account Type is CASH), the invoice type will need to be changed to ACCOUNT. This enables the invoice to be processed with a balance due amount, which can then be paid off overtime.
Once the invoice has been processed, it will show a balance due amount. You can then allocate the part payment against the invoice to reduce the balance.
