You or a customer might pay one invoice on multiple dates, or use multiple payment methods, such as a check and cash. In these situations, you can reorganize an invoice into several parts and assign a separate payment method to each part. After you reorganize the invoice, you can settle each new invoice line with a separate payment.

This information describes how to reorganize customer transactions that are in accounts receivable journals and vendor transactions that are in accounts payable journals.

Note

You can also reorganize transactions that are in the general journal and in payment journals.
