When you make a full or partial payment on a bill, it’s important to record that transaction to keep your payables up to date. Adam lets you record multiple payments per bill while automatically calculating the remaining balance and updating the bill’s status.
Steps to Record a Bill Payment:
From the Data Table section in the sidebar, select Bills to view your list of recorded bills.
Use the Search Bar or scroll through the Bills Table to find the bill you want to pay.
If a bill has an unpaid amount, you’ll see the Balance column highlighted in red. This indicates an outstanding payment.
To record your payment:
Click on the red Balance amount beside the bill you’re paying.
This opens the Bill Payment modal, where you can log the payment details.
Enter Payment Details
In the modal window, fill out the payment information:
Payment Date – Select the date the payment was made (e.g., Today).
Payment Account – Choose the account you paid from (e.g., Bank or Cash).
Amount Paid – Enter the amount you paid (e.g., ₦100,000 for a ₦150,000 bill).
You can split the payment into multiple parts:
Click the ➕ icon to add more rows (useful for recording staggered payments from different accounts or dates).
Click the ➖ icon to remove unnecessary rows.
After entering the payment details, click Save at the bottom of the modal.
Adam will update the bill’s balance and automatically reflect the payment in your financial records.
What Happens Next?
The remaining balance, if any (e.g., ₦50,000), will stay visible in the Balance column.
The bill status will update based on your payment:
Paid – if the full amount has been paid
Due Soon – if part of the bill is still unpaid and the due date is approaching
Overdue – if the unpaid amount has passed its due date
This makes it easy to track how much you’ve paid, how much is left, and when payment is due.
