Account Payment Register - Keep Draft

This module adds two settings to the Accounting configuration so you can decide what happens when someone registers a payment on an invoice.

• In Settings, under the customer payment options, you get "Register Customer Payment to State" with the choices Draft or Posted.
• Under the vendor payment options, you get "Register Vendor Payment to State" with the same two choices.
• Both default to Posted, so nothing changes unless you switch them.

When a user registers a payment, the module checks the company setting that matches the payment direction (incoming customer payment or outgoing vendor payment). If the setting is Draft, the newly created payment is forced back to Draft state, even if the standard process would have posted it. This lets you review or approve payments before they are finalised.

It also adds a small automatic step when a payment is posted: if the payment is linked to posted invoices that are not yet fully paid, the module tries to reconcile the receivable or payable lines between the invoices and the payment entry, so the invoices can be marked as paid.

The module touches the payment register wizard, the payment itself, the company settings and the Accounting settings screen. It does not add new menus or reports.
