There is a way, but it is quite cumbersome. (using the Lot viewer) I won’t go into any detail on that because there is a much simpler method using a new Customer Report (still in beta, introduced in 3.8) found in Reports > Experimental.
At first the report will come up blank and you’ll need to choose a customer in Options. Then in Options > Display you can choose to show the linked documents either in a simple, or detailed format. Play with both to see what works for you. The dev working on this (and other beta reports) would much appreciate as many people using and testing it as possible and reporting any issues. For some years now I have also been putting in my payment transaction notes/memos the bill# that is being paid by that transaction/split and if partial or final payment, indicate that as well. Thus: “for invoice #1234” “1st partial for invoice #1234” “2nd partial for invoice #1234” “final for invoice #1234” You could also repurpose the action field for applied invoice numbers, but memo is probably better unless you need that field for something else. (you have more space to see the number, for one) Unfortunately, there is a bug still in the AR/AP registers that setting the text on a memo also changes the notes field to match, and setting the notes field changes the first memo to match, so keep that in mind.
