Handling the payment in your company file

When a customer makes a payment, the details will automatically be entered into your Essentials file, and the invoice will be closed off. We'll also send you an email with a detailed break down of the payments.

Note that the individual payments you receive will be recorded as unmatched, and you'll receive a daily lump sum deposit for your online payments.

For example, say you receive three online payments on Monday. The payment details of each transaction will be listed as unmatched. MYOB will deposit the total of the three payments overnight into your bank account as one lump sum. So on Tuesday, you would match the deposited transaction that will appear on your bank feed and bank statements. For more information see Matching bank transactions.
