How can I pay off a contractor invoice if there is no landlord payment to make?

One of the easiest ways to allocate funds to a contractor invoice on a landlord statement is to do so when Paying Landlords.

However there may be occasions when there is no landlord payment to be made because of a nil balance on the landlord record.

In these cases you will need to allocate funds against the invoice via the Receive Payment screen

This will open the receive payment window. Any unallocated funds on the account will display at the bottom of the screen and you can just tick alongside the invoice you want to mark as paid before saving. DO NOT enter anything into the 'amount received' box as this will record more funds as being received into your bank.
