Posting the Outgoing Payment 

Use

In this step, you post a manual outgoing payment. This settles the vendor invoice you posted in the previous step. This outgoing payment is posted by you as you generally trigger outgoing payments yourself. You will, however, not post incoming payments yourself, since the customer pays his invoice as he likes. For this reason customer items can also be cleared using the electronic bank statement. In Accounts Payable, however, automatic clearing of open items is advisable only for credit memos.
