Hi Bob I'm no expert but I wrote the online help for the billing account screens.
I've got a question from a process point of view. If your customer pays on an invoice by invoice basis then why use a billing account? The standard invoice payment process functionality (with agreements if you want to give them a grace period in which to pay) can handle this. I would say that if your customer wants to consolidate more than one invoice into a statement that you could issue to them and then they make say one payment at the end of the month that will cover multiple invoices then the billing account would be the way to go. I've done some testing this morning and something has changed (ie. Isnt working anymore) in the billing accounts functionality since I wrote the help screens because I went through and tested everything at the time. Anyway when it was working this is what you could do: If you use the billing account screens to input the payment (instead of the payment screens) then you have the option to apply all or some of that payment to the outstanding invoices on the billing account – so partial payment of invoices are catered for. The 'Capture' button next to the invoice would do the invoice application of the payment plus create any partial and outstanding applications. (And it's the 'Capture' button that's stopped working) Not sure if this helps you much but I'd be very interested to see any other responses you get about this as it will help me to update the documentation. In the mean time I'll see if I can track down this new bug (if thats what it is) and report it on a Jira.
