External payments are transactions made and recorded in external systems such as banks or online payment gateways. When using integrations with third-party platforms, the payment records are automatically created and updated in the system as their status changes in those systems.
Once confirmed, these transactions become available automatically for reconciliation.

Reconcile External Payments With our integrations, external payments are created and updated automatically. Once confirmed, they become available for reconciliation. During reconciliation, receipts are created and applied to the outstanding invoices linked to the record the payment was made for. This makes it simple to identify and allocate payments accurately. The process is highly efficient, as the system automatically suggests and preselects the invoices that match the confirmed payment amount, reducing manual work and minimising errors.
