In Microsoft Dynamics 365 Business Central, you can pay part of an invoice by using the Payment Journal. This allows you to make partial payments for invoices and track the outstanding balance.

Go to the search bar (top right corner) and type "Payment Journal" and select related links

Enter the Document Type, Account Type, and Account No. in the payment journal line, and then click on the "Apply Entries" action.

Select the entries you would like to apply the Payment to and select the “Set Applies-to ID” action. The “Document No.” value of the journal line will populate the “Applies-to ID” field on the applied entry.

If the applied Payment is not for the entire open amount, you can enter the applied amount in the “Amount to Apply” field on the open entry.

As you can see, update the Amount to apply field to -1000 to apply a partial payment, reducing the original Remaining Amount of -2400.

then Click on OK

After verifying the details, click Post to process the partial payment.

The invoice will now show an outstanding balance of 1400 (2400 - 1000), and the partial payment of -1000 will be recorded.

If you have any questions, please feel free to reach out here.

Hi, good day
I hope this can help you, and give you some hints.

Is there a possibility to partially pay a purchase invoice?

Hi, one more thing to add: if the payment is before the invoice, you may need to use prepayments

Hope this helps.

Thanks.

When you create a payment line and apply it to an invoice, the system will automatically change the amount field to the entire invoice amount. You can manually override this to the partial amount. That's all there is to it.
