Record the amount you actually paid and leave any remaining supplier balance outstanding.

1. Open the bill’s history

Find the bill under Purchases → Bills. Review Manage Payments → History to check whether the payment is already recorded.

2. Choose Record payment

Use the bill’s Record payment action or Manage Payments → Record payment. Check the vendor and bill balance.

The payment form identifies the vendor and bill separately from the payment details.

3. Enter the actual payment

Enter amount, currency, date, payment method, paying account, and reference. For a partial payment, enter only what you paid.

4. Save and check

Save, then review History and the remaining bill balance. Do not record an unpaid remainder as another payment; a genuine vendor reduction belongs in Vendor Credits.
