Cannot allocate unpaid sales invoice to bank recon

[fopetesl]

Sales invoice 349 5/4/20 £180 gross marked as Draft.
Bank transaction 8/4/20 shows green £180 but I cannot allocate to the 349 sales invoice either by the default search or allocating to the customer who exists in database. Trying to manually allocate shows £180 not found.

Sorry, should say “paid sales invoice”

[Paul_Courtier]

Draft invoices have to be marked as sent before you can allocate any payments to them.

Thank you, time to re-read the manual.
