Before saving the payment make sure that the pay column reflects the correct amount for each invoice and that the total at the bottom of the column matches the amount entered at the top. Remember you can choose receipt by "Client" if a client is paying multiple of their own invoices, you can choose receipt by "Matter" if a client is paying multiple invoices in relation to one matter, and you can choose Receipt by "Invoice" if the payment is in relation to a specific invoice.
