Records and local rule
Original remittance instruction names bill I1 with open 500 and I2 with open 300. Receipt P900 is confirmed 900. Local policy allocates only the instructed open amounts and retains any surplus as unapplied receipt, pending further instruction.
| Target | Supported open amount | Allocation |
|---|---|---|
| I1 | 500 | 500 |
| I2 | 300 | 300 |
| P900 remainder | 900−800 | 100 unapplied |
Process the recorded case
- Confirm actual receipt and remittance identity
- Match named open bills
- Record one allocation per supported bill
- Retain surplus for a separate instruction
Unknown remittance references remain unresolved; do not allocate to a similarly sized bill merely to use the cash.

What is allocated and what remains unapplied?

500+300=800 allocated, 900−800=100 unapplied. Both named bills are cleared under the supplied instruction; surplus is not income or refund evidence.
