You can initiate the process of payment auto-application by using the Apply payments automatically (AR506000) window.
Match incoming payments
After the payments are processed in the AutoPay inbox (CA50400S) window, you need to match them automatically from the Process incoming payments (AR305000) window.
Match a bank transaction or incoming payment line to different documents
In the Process bank transactions (CA306000) and Process incoming payments (AR305000) windows, you can split a bank transaction or incoming payment line in the left table into different lines to process them against corresponding, multiple documents.

For bank transactions and incoming payments with no match, you can create a new document or payment to match manually.
