Completing a manual employee payment using Allocate Multiple

Product Help Banner.png

 

You may want to send one cheque to cover a number of different invoices for an employee. If this occurs, you will need to allocate the payment to multiple invoices. This process is achieved by entering the total amount of the payment, and then allocating it against each of the invoices until the remaining unallocated amount is zero.
