      Setting a Payment Reference for suppliers or tax payments

      Nook makes it easy to set a Payment Reference for suppliers or tax payments

      • If you’re paying Corporation Tax and PAYE to HMRC, then Nook will use the reference field from the invoice, and we check it is 17 characters in length
      • If you’re paying VAT to HMRC it will use the Tax Number set in your Company settings page
      • If you’re paying suppliers, 
        • If you have a Payment Reference set for the Contact in Nook, it will be the default the suppliers see on their bank account
        • If no Payment reference is set, it will use the invoice reference
      • If you’re paying multiple invoices to a supplier, then it will append a list, but the list is capped at 18 characters, which is why we recommend using the supplier portal (so add email addresses)
