Ahh, right.  Sounds like you are using the "Business Features" - I assume that 
you originally created these bills in GC using the Vendor -> New Bill 
process.

You need to do Business -> Vendor -> Process payment to get the payment to 
allocate to the bills.  Note though that you can allocate payment to any one 
bill, or any set of contiguous bills, not a random selection.

HTH,
