Once configured, short pay reasons will be available for customers in their customer portal. If an amount to pay is entered and is less than the full amount of the invoice, the system will show an error and the customer is forced to choose a short pay reason. Once the customer has chosen a short pay reason from the dropdown, they will be able to submit the payment. Customers must be assigned an "Accounts Payable" role to use this feature.
