Creating an Incoming Payment involves generating a document to record money received from a customer, typically to settle an open sales invoice. This process is essential for financial reconciliation and accurate cash flow reporting. The API payload for an incoming payment requires key details such as the customer's CardCode, the payment amount, and a link to the specific invoice being paid through its DocEntry and the SumApplied to it. The payment can be specified as a cash payment (CashSum) or a bank transfer (TransferSum), with each method requiring its corresponding accounting information.
