When you select a due instalment, the instalment payment part at the bottom of the page automatically displays the amount of the selected instalment. You can then select the real payment method that is used to pay for this instalment. Once you select a payment method you can add a remark to the payment and finish the operation. The payment cycle for this instalment is over.
Next steps: once instalments are paid, the file is considered as "Settled", but keep in mind that no communication is automatically sent to the customer when you record the payment of the instalments. If you wish to send an email to customers to notify them that their payment was successful, you need to configure the Instalment payment notification batch. This batch enables you to send emails when instalments are paid based on the sales channel on which instalments were paid and the payment method used.
