Account reconciliation request

Payment receipt & acknowledgment
Record money actually received, identify the payment and its purpose, and distinguish a part payment from an account review. The receipt does not automatically release another balance or unrelated claims.

A drafting aid, not a verified record or guaranteed form. Check the facts, your authority, and the recipient’s requirements before sending.
Before you begin
- Verify receipt of funds before confirming payment.
- Use a unique reference and state the amount with its currency.
- Name the payer, recipient, item or invoice, and payment date.
- Select part payment when only an installment was received; verify any remaining balance separately.
Record the payment without promising more than happened
- Check that the amount was actually received. A planned transfer or an unpaid invoice is not the same as a completed payment.
- Identify the payer and recipient, payment date, amount and currency, and the payment purpose or invoice reference. Use an existing transaction reference when available.
- Clarify whether the payment is partial or relates to a specific invoice. Do not imply that all accounts are settled when other sums remain unresolved.
- Have the appropriate recipient review the acknowledgment and keep it with the transaction record. This tool does not verify a bank transfer or certify a signature.

Questions about this template
Is a receipt the same as an invoice?
No. An invoice requests payment or records an amount due. A receipt acknowledges money received. Use the wording that matches the event you can verify.
Can I record a partial payment?
Yes. State the amount actually received and what it relates to. Do not describe it as full and final settlement unless that statement has been checked and is appropriate.
Does the receipt release all future claims?
No automatic release is created by recording a payment. A release or settlement has a different purpose; do not add broad waiver language simply to acknowledge receipt.
