Let's say we have an invoice for $4,000.00 due in quarterly installments. In the past, our data entry clerks have entered the full amount of the invoice and then applied the installment amount in the Edit Payment screen in a manual check batch as the installments become due. We would get a warning "Applied amount cannot be greater than the maximum payment" regardless of the amount of the payment but we could enter through and save the payment details.
Since upgrading from 8.1F to 9.2A we can no longer do this without first going to Payment Control and changing the Max Payment. The same is true for any invoice we have had to apply an adjustment to (eg. to correct a typo made when entering an invoice). When attempting to apply the payment amount in the Edit Payment screen, the warning "Applied amount cannot be greater than the maximum payment." appears and goes into a loop regardless of the amount entered. Pressing the space bar on the invoice to try to apply the full amount outstanding, whether its the final installment or the total amount of an invoice that was adjusted, just skips to the next line. No payment details can be saved for these invoices without first going to Payment Control to change the Max Payment, slowing the completion of a Manual Check run a bit.
