If you pay your suppliers from outside of Grain Trader, you just need to record the payment to make sure your reports are up-to-date.

1. Select the Supplier against whom you want to record a payment
2. Display the Supplier Payment window
3. Enter the payment details on the Supplier Payment window

Click Supplier on the Shortcut Bar to display the Select Supplier window, then select the supplier:

Once the Supplier window is displayed and is the active window, the Supplier shortcuts are displayed on the Shortcut bar. Select Payment to display the Supplier Payment window: Any invoices with unpaid balances are displayed in the grid, except that any invoices that have been included in a Payment Batch that is pending (ie, the batch has been created but payment has not yet been committed) are excluded from this listing, so as to avoid the possibility of paying the invoice more than once. If an invoice in a pending Payment Batch is removed from the batch it will be listed in this grid again.

Select the invoice(s) to be paid on the Supplier Payment window and enter the amount(s) that are to be recorded as paid against each one. After you click Save you are returned to the Supplier window. If you click on the Transactions tab you will see that the payment has been recorded. In this example the invoice was fully paid and has a balance outstanding of zero.
