## Facts

- If money is paid into a **VAT** bank account, only the **no-VAT portion** of that payment is applied when the quote is no-VAT. The VAT slice of the payment is not counted against a no-VAT quote.
- If the quote includes VAT, a VAT-account payment can be used in full.
- Dispatch is blocked when that split leaves the quote short: the client must pay the remaining amount.
