Partial payment

Also called Short payment · Split payment

TL;DRA deposit that covers less than the invoice — or one invoice paid across several deposits.

A partial payment is matched to the invoice for its amount; the invoice stays open for the balance and dunning pauses rather than restarting. Several deposits can settle one invoice and one deposit can be split across several.
