How to record Other Payments and expenses

Details of the process for entering payments that don’t relate to supplier invoices in Sage Accounting.

Resolution

When not paying an invoice, use this option
You can't use Other Payment to pay a purchase invoice later
Only use when the supplier won't send you an invoice. For example, you paid cash

In Banking, select the correct bank account.
Select New Entry, then Purchase/Payment.
Select the Other Payment tab. Fill in the bank account, payment method, date, and amount.
If needed, enter the supplier and a reference.
Complete the remaining details for your Other Payment.
For multiple items, list each on a separate line. Ensure the total matches the Amount Paid before saving.
TIP: If you only know the gross value of a single item, enter this in the Total. Press Tab or Enter and Sage will calculate the Net and VAT.
Select Save, or choose Add Another from the dropdown.

NOTE: If entering multiple lines, it will show as a single payment on the bank account but as individual amounts on the ledger accounts.

To set up a recurring payment, open the saved payment and select Make recurring. For more details, refer to Recurring payments and receipts.
