Party-specific Payments

You can process payments or prepayments to individual Suppliers with the ACCOUNTS PAYABLE > Payments feature. However, this is a generic Payments feature that can also be used for making the following type of payment:

1. Sales Commission payment
2. Customer refund
3. Redemption of gift certificate
4. Income tax/Payroll tax/Sales tax payment # Salary payment/Payroll payment

These other types of payments will be explained separately. We will look at Supplier payments/prepayments in this section. Much like the batch mode using Payment Groups, you need to choose the invoices for every Supplier to whom a payment has to be made. However, the major difference is that in this case, invoices need to be selected manually and not conditionally, such as range of invoice dates or range of due dates.
