Additional Information

Receipt Only transactions do not create a receipt and have no GL impact. Receipt Only transactions are used to rebalance a bill when the funds have been collected but the bill does not properly reflect the balance as paid.

The opposite of a Receipt Only payment is an Adjust PTD transaction in which we reduce the amount that shows as paid on a permit.
