Payment Request
Asks a customer to pay an invoice by email or a payment gateway link. When paid it can create the Payment Entry.
In detail
A Payment Request asks a customer to pay a specific amount against an invoice or order. It can email the customer your bank details or a payment gateway link, and when the gateway confirms payment, or you mark it paid, it creates the Payment Entry that posts the receipt. The request itself posts nothing; its status moves from Draft to Initiated, then Paid or Cancelled. For a supplier it works the other way, as an outward request feeding a Payment Order. Since most Nepali customers pay by bank transfer or wallet, the request is a clean way to send the amount, invoice number and account details in one message and record the receipt in one click.
