Supplier Payments record payments for goods or services purchased, which pay Purchase Invoices. Other Payments include various other types of transactions, like miscellaneous expenses or internal costs.
If required, you can convert an Other Payment to a Supplier Payment.
EXAMPLE:
Posting a Purchase Invoice and an Other Payment for the same purchase can create duplicate entries in the nominal code and VAT Return.
