## Paying a Supplier Partner for a Delivery

You can log a Supplier Payment once a buyer has paid for a delivery.

Within the specific delivery, the `Add Payment` button allows you to record a buyer payment. When you log the buyer payment, you can also add details around the supplier payment currency, FX rate, and amount.

### Setting Supplier Payment Date

1. In the Order, open a specific Delivery
2. `Edit` the Delivery
3. Set the `Estimated Supplier Payment Date` for this Delivery

This is the payment date that is reflected to the supplier partner on statements and portal views.

### Setting the Supplier Payment Amount

You can set the amount paid to a supplier Partner alongside the Customer Payment. This amount requires the supplier Partner’s preferred currency, as well as either the exchange rate or the actual amount paid to the supplier partner.

1. In the Delivery, `Edit` the `Payment`
2. The `Supplier Payment Currency` reflects the preferred currency of the supplier partner
3. Enter the `FX Rate` when the supplier partner was paid, or switch to `Input supplier payment` and enter the absolute amount in the supplier payment currency

Once saved, this is the amount that is reflected to the supplier partner on statements and portal views.
