| Unallocate purchase transactions |
Description | Unallocating a purchase transaction changes the invoice status to Outstanding while keeping the supplier account balance the same. The bank account balance remains unaffected unless you delete or change the payment value, and you can reallocate unallocated payments later. NOTE: This doesn't remove it from the bank reconciliation. |
Resolution | Depending on how you allocated payments, you can unallocate sales transactions in several ways. - From the purchase invoice: Remove all payments and credit notes from a single invoice to edit it
- From the supplier payment: Remove invoices from a single payment to edit it; locate this on the Supplier Activity page
- From the supplier allocation: Adjust multiple payments and invoices in one session using the Supplier Activity page
- From a credit note: Remove invoices associated with a single credit note
- Open the invoice from the Purchase invoice list or your Contacts List.
- From Purchases, select Purchase invoices, and open the relevant invoice
- From Contacts, select Suppliers, open the relevant supplier, and then the relevant invoice
- In the Payments section, click the Payment link under the Amount Paid.
NOTE: This opens the Payments and Allocations screen showing allocated payments or credit notes. - Click the link in the Amount column.
- In the Account Allocation section, Clear checkboxes or adjust Amount to Pay.
