Payments
The Payments area records money in and money out, and keeps every customer and supplier balance up to date.
Record a payment
Go to Payments to log:
- Money received from a customer (against a sales order)
- Money paid to a supplier (against a purchase order)
Each payment links to the contact and the related order.
Balances update automatically
When you record a payment:
- A customer's outstanding balance (what they owe you) goes down
- A supplier's outstanding balance (what you owe them) goes down
No manual recalculation needed — the numbers in Customers & Suppliers and the Reports always reflect the latest payments.
Reconciling
Use these reports to keep accounts straight:
- Customer statement — orders and payments per customer
- Supplier statement — orders and payments per supplier
- Payment summary — payments across the business
