Allocations Screen

  • Typically Receipts are allocated to Invoices at the point the Receipt is created - please see this article.

  • It is possible to allocate the Receipt separately if required using the allocations screen.

    • A common example is the Invoice has not yet been created, or potentially it may not initially be clear which invoice the Receipt should be allocated to without further investigation.

  • The Receipt will show in the Finance Details panel with an Unallocated Balance, for example:


Allocate a Receipt to an Invoice

  • Navigate to the Finance Details tab on the relevant Account and press the “Allocate” button.

  • This will open the Allocations screen.

  1. Tick Allocate on the Receipt you wish to allocate

  2. Tick Allocate on the Invoice you wish to allocate the Receipt to

  3. Check the figures in the right hand panel are as expected

  4. Press Allocate at the top of the screen.

  • It’s crucial to ensure all Receipts are allocated to Invoices to avoid a build-up of unallocated finance which can lead to various issues.
