Use the Allocations Form to indicate specifically which Payments (or Credit Memos) you want to pay for what Bills.
When a Payment is entered in the Payments Form, it is initially posted as a Deposit - an amount set aside for a particular Vendor for paying some current or future Purchase.
Once you've determined what Invoice(s) this Payment should be applied to, you may use the Auto Apply, or Apply buttons on the Payments Form, or specifically select this Allocate Form to designate how much of the Payment(s) or Credits Memo(s) should be applied to which Invoice(s).
In so doing, when you Print Checks, this information will be included on the Check Stub indicating to that Vendor exactly what Invoices (and how much on each) you intended to pay with this Check.
