Frequently asked questions
Can I record less than the full balance?
Yes. Read Covers: cash is allocated oldest-first and the remainder stays owed.
Does Just this meal guarantee that exact row is paid first?
No. It selects the bill and amount, but allocation still follows oldest unpaid meals. Review Covers.
Why was no receipt emailed for a partial payment?
The receipt option applies only to bills fully paid by this cash application.
