There are 4 letters that can be used to specify how an invoice is paid.
M = Manual Check. Use the MC button on the AP Invoice screen to pay these invoices.
N = Non-Check Payment. Use the
Non Check Payments screen to pay these invoices.
E = Electronic Funds Transfer. Invoices marked with a PP of E will not use a check number. You can enter a Manual Check to mark these invoices as paid. You can also use the
