Accept Invoices and Share Payment Details Through Bharat Connect in TallyPrime

As a buyer, you receive invoices from your supplier and accept them to create a purchase voucher. You can then initiate a full or partial payment, which the supplier can accept. Once accepted, you can record it by creating a payment voucher and share the payment details with the supplier.

During this process of accepting invoices and sharing payment details, the voucher passes through multiple stages where your action is required.
