Dear excel masters,

I have a task to match all vendor invoices with their related payments with FIFO logic. However I cannot build the model in excel and need assistance.

As you can see in data chunk (or screenshot); there are 3 clearing items in data (in my actual data more than 5.000) as seen in B column.

- In clearing 111111; we see 5.000 USD invoice as of 11.11.2022 is paid with 5.000 USD on 30.12.2022.
- However not every clearing consists up of only one invoice and one payment. Such a in clearing 3332222; we see 3 different invoices, where invoice no.s 17 and 18 (total 10 K USD) is paid with payment 32. And Invoice 19 is fully paid with payment 36.
- Sometimes invoice and payments are not directly matched in amount, and some portion of invoices might not have been paid yet. In clearing 111122, we see that,
+ payment 131 (30 K USD) fully pays invoice 112 (15 K USD), and then pays 15 K portion of invoice 114.
+ for invoice 114,
the remaining 5 K USD amount is paid by payment 134.
+ With FIFO method; when all invoices and payments are matched; we still see that invoice 131 have a 5 K USD portion which have not yet been paid.

What I am trying to do?
For each invoice; I am trying to obtain what part of amount is paid as of which date; and to see if there is any remaining invoice amount not yet been paid.
How can I construct a model which solves this?

Thanks in advance.

EDIT:
I would like to renew my purpose;
I am just trying to automatically fill the two columns below;
- Payment Matching Amount
- Payment Matching Date

(Also as seen in invoice document 114; sometimes the information may be in more than one line since the invoice is paid with different payments).

I am not interested to find remaining invoice amount that have not yet been filled.

Excel Facts

Back into an answer in Excel
Use Data, What-If Analysis, Goal Seek to find the correct input cell value to reach a desired result
Let me paraphrase the issue in a more clear way;

Invoices table
ClearingDocumentDocumentNoDocTypeDocDateAmount
1111Invoice24.10.202225.000
1112Invoice25.10.202225.000
1113Invoice26.10.202225.000
1114Invoice27.10.202225.000
22213Invoice27.10.20227.500

Payments table
ClearingDocumentDocumentNoDocTypeDocDateAmount
1117Payment01.01.202350.000
1118Payment01.02.202330.000
1119Payment01.03.202330.000
22215Payment02.03.20237.500


And the desired outcome is to obtain which portion of invoice is paid as of which date. Like this;

ClearingDocumentDocumentNoDocTypeDocDateAmountInvoiceAmountPaidPaymentDatePaymentDocNo
1111Invoice24.10.202225.00025.00001.01.20237
1112Invoice25.10.202225.00025.00001.01.20237
1113Invoice26.10.202225.00025.00001.02.20238
1114Invoice27.10.202225.0005.00001.02.20238
1114Invoice27.10.202225.00020.00001.03.20239
22213Invoice27.10.20227.5007.50002.03.202315

As you may see in the desired outcome,

1) For clearing no. 222; since there is only one invoice and there is only one payment which are matching in amount (7.500); the result is so smooth.
2) For clearing no. 111; it is a bit more complicated.
a) Invoice 1 and 2 (each 25 K) was paid with payment 7 (50 K). In the desired outcome we see that half of payment 7 (25 K) is attribute to invoice 1; and the other half is attributed to invoice 2.
b) As per FIFO, Payment 8 (30 K) first pays invoice 3 (25 K), and then pays the 5K portion of invoice 4. The remaining of invoice 4 is paid by payment 9.

So basicly; for under each clearing item and based on FIFO; I am trying to match invoices and payments according to the two rules I mentioned above.
It does not matter if the total amount of invoices and total amount of payments under the same clearing chunk is not the same (ie; does not result in 0). The code should run until either total invoice or total payment amount in that chunk runs to 0.
