Matching a Payment to Multiple Invoices

How to match a single payment to multiple invoices and what it means for the balance

Written by Petr Pech

Matching payments to multiple invoices can be done in the same way in both the bank and the cash register. The following steps demonstrate the process using the bank:

  1. go to the Money – Bank menu,

  2. above the list of records, click the Services button, specifically the Manual payment matching action,

  3. a dialog box will open — check all the documents (invoices) you want to settle (match with the payment),

  4. click the Finish button,

  5. a checkmark will appear in the Matched column for the given record

⚠️ If the invoices being paid have different variable symbols, they will all be assigned a single shared matching symbol based on the payment. As a result, they will appear in the balance under a symbol that does not correspond to their own variable symbol, and may remain in the unpaid balance even after payment. For details and a resolution, see the article Matching Symbol in the Balance.
