I have two customers set up as they are different branches, but payment sometimes comes from head office in bulk for jobs done across the two branches.
So I received a bulk payment today, I tagged it as a part payment against one invoice raised, but how do I allocate the rest to reconcile with the remaining payment? It says that there is £150 unallocated but I can’t work out how to allocate these remaining funds?
You’ll have to either delete the bulk bank transaction and manually add two separate transactions for the amounts belonging to the two clients (this is ok as long as the balance is still correct overall), or tag the single transaction as a transfer from another bank account (drawings/director loan if you can’t be bothered creating a whole special holding account for the purpose) then mark the individual invoices paid into the same account to balance it up.
