customer pays supplier. how to handle in NS???

I have a rather odd question...

The company I am currently working with has a few customers
who will pay certain vendors in our name.

For example:
customer C owes us $700 (A/R)
we owe vendor V $300 (A/P)

customer C will pay vendor V on our behalf.
For example, customer C wil pay vendor V $200 directly.

After this transaction
customer C now owes us only $500
while we owe vendor V only $100.

What would be the best way to handle this in NetSuite???
I look forward to receiving your suggestions...
