NSC | Understanding the computation for Payment’s Amount Due field

edited Aug 7, 2025 5:56PM in Accounting / ERP

Scenario

Users are confused about how the Amount Due on a Payment record is computed, as it does not match the actual amount due for the Customer or Vendor.

Computation and Explanation

Data

  • Invoice Amount = $100
  • First Payment = $20
  • Second Payment = $30
  • Third Payment = $40

Upon first payment

  • Amount Due is equal the Original Invoice amount of $100


Upon second payment

1st Payment – Amount Due was updated from $100 to $70

  • Amount Due = $100 Invoice Amount – $30 Payment applied from another payment record (from 2nd Payment)


2nd Payment
– Amount Due is $80

  • Amount Due = $100 Invoice Amount - $20 from 1st Payment


Upon third payment

1st Payment – Amount Due was updated from $100 to $70 to $30

Howdy, Stranger!
