FAQ
Can I record a partial payment on a bill?
Yes — Record Payment accepts any amount less than the total; the bill flips to partial and outstanding tracks the balance.

Yes. Open the bill, click Record Payment, and enter an amount less than the total. The bill moves to partial status, paid_amount tracks the running cumulative paid, and outstanding (total minus paid_amount) is what aged-creditor reports and reconciliation surface. Each instalment posts its own GL journal — DR Accounts Payable, CR Cash — for that amount. For the next instalment, open the same bill and click Record Next Payment. When cumulative paid_amount equals the total, status auto-flips to paid with no extra step.
