You would go to supplier payments on the bank screen and pay the invoice, which would both mark the invoice as paid and reduce the bank balance accordingly.
If you meant can you enter the bank payment before entering the invoice then I don't think you can (But I'm not a sage bod so I could be wrong)
That's another plus point for VT. If the invoice hasn't been recorded, I can still enter the payment when doing the bank payments and it shows as a credit under the supplier, and I can then chase the client for the invoice(s)

Hi When you come to 'pay' invoices from the Bank screen do NOT use the 'Bank Payments icon. Instead you use the 'Supplier' icon which will open up any outstanding supplier invoices which you can then link the payment to. Similarly if you issues invoices to your customers, when they pay do NOT use the 'receipts' icon but the 'customer' icon. If you dont do it this way then all your invoices will show as being unpaid which will then make your trade debtors and creditors incorrect so your balance sheet will not be right!
Only use the payments and receipts icons for items that you do not have suppliers/customers set up for eg Bank payments, one off items etc.
Every time you key something on sage it will have an impact on P&L and Balance sheet.
