Start with the evidence
Gather the remittance details and candidate documents for the project. Keep deposits, partial payments and final payments distinguishable according to their actual source context.
Work through the example
A project has invoices for USD400 and USD600, and a USD400 receipt arrives. The amount suggests a candidate, but its reference or confirmation should establish the link before status changes.
Make the next step clear
Retain the matching evidence and leave ambiguous receipts open. Do not mark the entire project paid because one of its documents has a matching amount.
Keep the source context
