Topic: How do I book a private payment of a suppliers invoice?

Hi,

I am having trouble allocating a direct invoice.

I payed an invoice from my private bank account. Now I booked this private payment to my "rekening courant" (sorry I don't know the english term) and accounts payable (crediteuren?) by adding a journal entry.

Now I created a Supplier Invoice so I could specify the VAT there and attach the pdf of the invoice.

I also added the bankpayment to my private bank account.

I think I am almost there but I cannot find a way to allocate the payment to the supplier invoice.

I am stuck here so if anyone has any suggenstions?

Regards

Hans

Re: How do I book a private payment of a suppliers invoice?

To be able to allocate a payment to a supplier, you need to do this payment using "purchase/payment to supplier" and or "bank & general legder/payment" and select the supplier.
Then you can allocate it using payment to the invoice.

If you haven't done that because it's a private payment, what I do is : I have my personal bank account set a bank account in FA (setup to the appropriate GL account).
If you don't want to add your personnal bank account , use the Cash one ( do the journal entry to feed the cash account, so you can pay the supplier from the cash acconut)
