Manual Payments sub-tab

Debtors can settle their account by credit card, cash, cheque, EFT payment or money order. The Manual Payments sub-tab shows the manual payment method last used in Cash Receipts Entry.

We recommend that the security permissions on the sub-tab be set to Select, to ensure that details are not mistakenly entered for automatic payments.
