M-Powered Invoices > Using M-Powered Invoices > Recording M-Powered invoice payments manually
You can manually record customer payments in your company file in the following ways:
If you have imported payments using M‑Powered Import Assist (see Importing customer payments using M-Powered Import Assist), you can use the procedures in this section to enter the payments that could not be imported.
To record customer payments using the Sales Register window
If you generate customer statements using M‑Powered Invoices, the invoice reference number that appears on your Payment Advice is the first (that is, the oldest) invoice number listed on the statement. The total statement amount paid appears against this invoice reference number.

3
Click the Open Invoices tab.

8
Click Receive Payment. The Receive Payments window appears, listing all the open invoice transactions and/or orders for the customer.

Enter the bank statement reference from the Payment Advice in the Memo field. This reference appears on your bank statement and helps you identify the customer payment.

In the Amount Applied column, enter the full amount received. The procedure for entering the amount applied will depend on whether your customer payment was made using a statement or an invoice.
For a customer payment made against a statement, apply the amount received to the oldest unpaid invoices first. The total amount applied to unpaid invoices should equal the customer payment amount received.
For a customer payment made against an invoice, enter in the Amount Applied column the full amount received against the invoice being paid.
Make sure that you enter, in the Amount Applied column, the full amount received from the customer. If the invoice is overpaid (that is, the amount received is greater than the total due shown in the Total Due column), when you click Record a credit note will be created. This credit can either be refunded to the customer or applied to a future invoice transaction.
