Submits a draft payment entry so it posts to the General Ledger.

write Confirm
Moves a draft Payment Entry to submitted. Submitting creates the General Ledger entries: debit to Bank or Cash, credit to the customer receivable. The allocated invoices then show Partly Paid or Paid. To reverse it, cancel the entry in ERPNext. By default you confirm each call; you can switch that off for this tool.
Parameters
| Name | Type | Description |
|---|---|---|
| payment_entry string required | string | Payment Entry ID from list_payment_entries or create_payment_entry. |
