Payments are now linked (associated with) the charges they cover. Conversely, charges are linked to the payment(s) to cover each. (More? Should probably add some explanation/examples (how to set Order IDs appropriately, for example), maybe a screenshot...)
Charge Types are ranked using the Order field (on the Charge Types form) - the lowest value being the highest rank.

Charges for Payment/Processing Fees (such as for credit card payments) should be associated with the lowest possible Order ID (typically 0 or 1) to ensure they are given priority, and properly mapped to the corresponding payment(s). |
Charges may also be ordered/ranked (within type/category) using the Order field on the Charges form:

When applying a payment, the following order is used:
- Highest-ranked Charge Type (0 or 1 is first, as mentioned above).
- Charges within this Charge Type, from lowest to highest Order value.
- Repeat 1 and 2 until all charges are paid or the amount of the payment is completely used/spent.
