What to check
- The invoice records the sale; the receipt reduces the customer balance.
Things to know
- A receipt description can mention an invoice, but it is not a manual invoice-allocation picker.
- Nizam allocates eligible payments using its existing allocation rules. Check the account balance as well as individual invoices.
