The idea is simply to put a 'Letter' on accounting movements that are
using receivable/payable accounts.

When he/she receive a payment for an invoice, the accountant put the
same letter on the invoice movement and on the corresponding payment
movement. It's just a way for the accountant to associate invoices with
their payments, then reports like Account Statement have an option to 
show only movements without letters.
