A Manual Payment is used for creating a single Ap Payment for a single Vendor.  Manual Payments can be created before the corresponding AP Invoice has been entered in to Restaurant365.


To create a Manual Payment, hover over the Vendor menu in the top ribbon and select ‘Manual Payment’.  A blank AP Payment form will open in a new tab

Recording Online Banking, Manual Check, Wire, or ACH Payments


If a payment is made using another payment method outside of Restaurant365, the Payment record can be entered in to Restaurant365 as a Manual Payment.  If the Payment Method for the Vendor is set as 'Credit Card' or 'Auto-Direct Debit' no check will be generated when creating a Manual Payment.  If the Payment Method is Check and a check was written outside of Restaurant365, record the Payment here as a Manual Payment, and delete the Check PDF that is generated without printing the Check
