In instances where a primary contact/broker is responsible for payment towards related contacts' invoices, a statement can be sent. This will allow the  the broker/primary contact the ability to review and pay invoices.  NOTE: A related contact refers to staff related to the office/business.

  2. In Finance Settings Show Related Contact Invoices by default on the payment screen in the Info Hub must NOT be enabled. 
  3. In Finance Settings set Statement Setting: Related Contact Financial. You can choose to display related contacts in a summary view (just the total for each invoice) or the line items that make up that total.
