Partial payments give you more flexibility in how you choose to pay vendors. It allows you to divide a single invoice into several payments and use different payment methods at various stages of the payment.
When you schedule a partial payment, you can track the remaining balance.
How to make partial payment
1. Add and schedule a bill for the full amount OR select Schedule Payment for an existing bill.
2. Click the pencil icon next to the open balance and edit the amount you’d like to pay.
Note: Edit amount from the Online Bill Payments dashboard
You can also add the amount you’d like to pay in the PAYMENT column and click Schedule payment.
3. Choose your payment method and click Continue.
4. Fill in the relevant delivery information and click Continue.
5. Choose when you want the funds to be deducted from your account. The estimated delivery date will appear. Click Continue.
6. Leave a note for your vendor and click Continue.
7. Review your payment, where you can edit how your vendor receives the payment. Click Confirm and schedule payment.
8. To view your open balances, go back to the Unpaid tab of Online Bill Payments. PARTIALLY PAID invoices will be marked under STATUS.
When the open balance of a bill reaches $0 it will automatically be removed from the Unpaid tab. The various payments for that bill will appear in the Scheduled or Paid tabs and labeled according to their stage.
