How to Assign a Credit Card Payment to an AP Invoice

1. Accounting > AP Invoice Entry > Enter AP invoice details as usual under the general tab.

2. Open the "Payments" tab.

3. Select "Setup for Credit Card Payment".

4. Enter, or search for, the credit card Vendor # and select the payables account from the GL account drop down. This is where the payable balance of the invoice will be held until it is paid.

5. Go back to the general tab and click the "Add" button.

6. **If the credit card information was not entered before adding the invoice entry. Click the entry from the AP distribution section, click the payments tab and enter the information and click the check button to update.

7. Enter the AP Invoice Distribution as usual by clicking the add button.

8. Click "Post" to finalize.

9. Now we will look at how this AP Invoice and the Credit Card Payment are assigned and reflected in the AP Inquiry.

10. Enter, or search for, the Vendor # you received the invoice from.

11. Check the History checkbox.

**Due to the credit card payment being already applied to the AP invoice, these details will automatically roll to the History since the AP invoice not holds a $0.00 balance for the original vendor.

12. Enter the date range you'd like to display history records for.

13. Click "Refresh".

14. The AP Invoice and applied payment are reflected with a $0.00 balance for your vendor on that invoice.

**At this point your credit card vendor holds the balance that would need to be paid in a standard AP Invoice Entry using a check or EFT payment.
