There may be times when you get sent an expense invoice or send out a sales invoice that will be paid with multiple transactions. This can still be reconciled in your bank feed.

1. Find the part payment within the reconciliation tab of Xero.

2. Click ‘Find and Match’.

3. Search for the invoice by its name, customer or amount.

4. Select the invoice that the payment is related to, a split option should be shown on the same line.

5. If you click ‘Split’ in the centre of the line, it will show the balance of the invoice, how much is being paid shown as paid now, and the remainder that will be on the invoice.

6. Click to reconcile against the first payment and then repeat the process (except the split) to reconcile the second payment.
