How do I record multiple invoice or bill payments at once?

There are situations in which you might have multiple business deals with a single customer or vendor. That is, you might have issued multiple invoices to one of your customers or received multiple bills from one of your vendors. In such cases, you might pay your vendor for all the bills received in one go, and your customers might pay you in the same way.

To record payment for multiple invoices of a customer:

1. Log in to your Zoho Books account.

2. Go to the Payments Received module under Sales on the left sidebar.

3. Click the + New button on the top right corner.

4. Select the customer for whom you want to record payment in the Customer Name dropdown. Now, you will be able to see a list of all the unpaid invoices associated with that particular customer.

5. Enter the total amount received in the Amount Received field. If you have received payment for every unpaid invoice of the customer, check the box Received Full Amount.

6. Enter the amount received for each invoice. You can also use the Pay in Full button to auto-populate the amount pending for an invoice.
