Go To User Guide - Accounts Payable

Accounting>File>Accounts Payable>Add/Edit Payables>Split Payables Button

This selection allows an invoice to be split or divided into two or more invoices.  Use this option to partially pay an invoice.  Either an invoice may be split by percentage or actual dollar amounts.

  Note: Invoices with a negative balance may be only be split into invoices with negative balances, and those with positive balances may only be split into invoices positive balances.

How To:

1. After entering the new amount or percentage for the new invoice, the system will create a second invoice, using the original invoice number followed by a suffix of S01, S02, etc.  An invoice may be split up to 99 times.
2. The invoice date for the new invoice will be the system date, and the due date will be the same number of due days forward as the original invoice.
