Settling Advance Payments

How it Works:
  • When you add an invoice for a vendor to whom you have already paid an advance, RazorpayX recognises it and asks you if that particular advance is relevant to the current invoice.
  • If it is relevant, select the checkbox against the row and the payable amount reduces as the advance is subtracted from the invoice.
You can make the payment instantly, schedule it or save and close the invoice. The invoice status will appear as PARTIALLY PAID once you map it to the advance payment.

Advance Payment State

After the advance payment is mapped with the invoice, the status of the advance changes from PAID to USED.
