Payment Ledger

The Payment Ledger is a second, narrower ledger that BRAccount keeps beside the General Ledger for receivable and payable accounts only. Every invoice, payment, credit note and journal against a customer or supplier writes a Payment Ledger Entry that records which invoice the amount belongs to, and the outstanding amount on an invoice is the net of these rows. The General Ledger knows that Debtors moved; the Payment Ledger knows that it moved against ACC-SINV-2026-00004. When the two disagree, perhaps after a migration or a failed cancel, an invoice can show outstanding money while the customer's ledger balance is zero. This report shows the raw Payment Ledger rows so you can see exactly what was allocated to what.

Outstanding on an invoice = Invoice amount - Payments and credit notes allocated to it in Payment Ledger Entry rows
