You could use either
Customer.ApplyPayment
or
Invoice.ApplyPayment

The former will assign a payment to the list of all outstanding invoices for 
that customer on a 
FIFO basis.

The second one will assign a payment to one specific invoice. Depending on the 
payment 
amount and the invoice amount this will result in
* a fully paid invoice (if both amounts were equal)
* a fully paid invoice with an outstanding pre-payment (if the payment was 
bigger than the 
invoice)
* a partially paid invoice (if the payment was less than the invoice)

There are some examples in simple_business_create.py. You would have to look at 
the most 
recent maint branch head in git though for a fully working example. I noticed 
the files was out 
of date since the 2.6 release. I have pushed some changes to fix this.

Will this help you ?
