Payables answer a simple question: **what does the business still owe suppliers?** Lynka keeps supplier bills, approval or posting actions and payments connected so an unpaid bill remains visible until it is actually settled. Open **Accounting > Payables** to review supplier bills and **Accounting > Payments** for related payment activity. ## Supplier bills A supplier bill records an amount owed to a vendor. Depending on the workflow, users can create, view, post, void or delete bills with permissions such as `bill.create`, `bill.view`, `bill.post`, `bill.void` and `bill.delete`. Use the correct supplier, dates, currency, amounts and accounting context. A bill should reflect the supplier obligation, not merely a note that a purchase happened. ## Approval and posting Where the workflow exposes approval, review the bill before it affects the books. Posting moves the bill into the accounting record and contributes to Accounts Payable. If a posted bill needs correction, use the supported void, reversal or credit workflow rather than silently changing historical accounting. ## Paying a bill Record payment when the business actually settles the supplier obligation. Partial payment can leave a remaining payable, while full settlement should remove the outstanding amount. Use **A/P Aging** to see supplier balances grouped by age and identify bills that need attention. ## Procurement and payables are related but different A purchase order records what you ordered. A goods receipt records what arrived. A supplier bill records what the supplier says you owe. Those records can refer to the same business purchase without being interchangeable. Record a supplier obligation correctly. Move the payable through review and settlement. Understand purchasing and receiving before the payable. Use A/P Aging and ledger reports to verify balances.
