Introduction

In this section we will take a look at how the user can optionally accept a customer payment across multiple payment types by using the Split Payment Dialog .

This dialog displays the Total Charge and the Balance (as per figure below). The Total Charge is the bill amount and the Balance amount is the amount that remains to be adjusted or received against a payment type. 

Note that in the figure below the Total Charge and the Balance are the same value. This is because no payment has been entered  against any payment type.

In order to enter a payment click on a payment type and enter the amount received against the payment type. Continue the process until the entire payment has been received and the Balance figure becomes zero.
