Process bank entries with payment instalments
When processing a bank statement Profit uses the different search options to find the associated outstanding items for reconciliation. Important here is matching the amount. The process of matching is also a check of the payment instalments.
Do the following to match payment instalments:
- When a specific invoice has been matched, Profit first checks whether the amount received matches the total amount or the balance of the invoice.
If partial payments have been recorded for the relevant invoice, then Profit checks whether the amount received matches one of the partial amounts or the balance of one of the payment instalments.
- If no specific invoice is found, Profit checks whether the amount can be matched to the combination of multiple outstanding items, in order of age.
If the oldest outstanding item is an invoice with payment instalments and the amount received is less than the balance of the invoice, then Profit checks whether the combination of payment instalments matches. This matching is also based on a sorting by age, just as the matching at the invoice level.

- Go to:Financial / Enter / Bank statement.
