How to create a remittance advice in Sage Accounting.
Description
If you make payments to suppliers, you can create a remittance advice to let them know you've paid. This is useful if you’re making one payment which covers several invoices.
If you need to refund a credit note or a customer, you can also create a remittance. This is so they know which transaction you’re refunding.
When you create the remittance you can choose to print or email it.
NOTE: You cannot customise a remittance advice slip.
