In organizations that use centralized payment processing, each operating legal entity manages its own invoices receivable information. Payments from customers are received by a single legal entity, which is referred to as the legal entity of the payment. Use this procedure to select invoices to settle. For more information, see Key tasks: Customer payments and settlements.
