Decreasing amounts payable to secondary payees

Important! The amount to be paid to secondary payees cannot be decreased to less than the amount already paid.

In your contracting work, you enter and save a payable invoice from a vendor for their work. The invoice is to be paid with one check going to the vendor in addition to a two-party check going to one of their suppliers. The vendor requests that you decrease the amount of the two-party check. Use the following procedure to handle this situation.

To decrease the amount payable to a second payee:

  1. Open 4-2 Payable Invoices/Credits.
  2. Using the data control, locate and open the existing invoice.
  3. Click the Secondary Payee button.
  4. The Secondary Payee window opens.
  5. In the Amount column, decrease the payable amount.
  6. Click the Save button.
  7. Open 4-3 Vendor Payments to print and post the checks.
