   1. Click in the Date field, and select the date on which you want to issue the receipt from the resultant calendar view.
   2. From the drop-down list, select the contract to which to assign the receipt.
   3. Enter the required information in the Info text field. This is supplementary information that is displayed on the receipt.
   4. In the Bank account field, select the required bank account from the drop-down list. The bank accounts displayed are those created via Merchant > Branding > Bank Accounts.
   5. In the Receipt amount field, enter the required receipt amount.
   6. Click Recalculate (if required) to view the outstanding balance (original invoice amount less payment amount on receipt) – only applicable to manually allocated receipts.
   7. Click Clear allocations (if required) – only applicable to manually allocated receipts.
   8. Click allocate next to the required invoice in order to allocate the receipt against the specified invoice – only applicable to manually allocated receipts.
