Introduction
The Invoice Items – Payment subtracts the amount of a customer payment from the total amount of an invoice or statement. Payment items are used when you receive a partial payment on an invoice. An example might be a down payment. If you receive full payment at the time of the sale, use a sales receipt form instead of a payment item on an invoice.
