OK, I've brought up the Vendor Report (beta) by clicking
Reports > Experimental > Vendor Report (beta)
Then click Edit Options in the popup windowThen in the next window on the
General Tab select the date range, enter the vendor nameThen click the Display
Columns TabThen at the bottom of the list click Links and select one of the
choices.I selected Simple then clicked Apply to see the report come upNow the
last column is titled "Links" and at the end of each Payment row the Vendor
Bill/Invoice/Reference number shows up so you can see that check was used to
pay that bill.
Very Cool !
Thank you Adrien and also the GC dev Team.

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.
Regards,
Adrien
