English term (edited):
pull [the icon for] payables into [the icon for] a payment [on a computer screen]
mettre/ transférer/déplacer un montant dû dans un paiement
pulling them = dragging them on the screen from .. to ...
"pulling payables into a payment" is definitely NOT your standard accountant's jargon (and out of a GUI context would sound as total nonsense to any accountant), it's the jargon of GUI [Graphic User Interface} design.
from the limited extract you have given it's not very easy to figure out that your ST is about some accounting software, where you reconcile received invoices / due amounts and made payments by dragging on a computer screen a symbol representing a "due amount" into a screen symbol /icon representing a payment - a visual way of "pairing" them (IOW reconciling them).
What this describes:
Use this procedure to select offsetting open items from the vendor's payables [i.e. = money owed to the company's suppliers] and clear them from the payables without pulling them into a payment.
is how some "due amounts (due to company's suppliers)" get eliminated/reduced to zero without being "dragged on the screen into the icon of a [made] payment" - without being associated/paired with a payment (made by the company) - but are instead "offset against some claims/amounts owed by some other party"
100% sure of the explanation, but depending on terms used elsewhere in your translation, other wordings are possible.

this kind of "drag and drop" operations on performed on a GUI / screen are nothing exceptional - that's one of the possible ways [established/introduced yeeears ago] to move one object (a file, a folder) into another one in many operating system that have a Graphic User Interface.

: 'déplacer un montant dû dans un paiement': Does this sound French? I doubt it!

You are free to doubt whatever you want as much as you want - but getting to grasp the [only plausible] context of this ST would be [maybe? possibly?] a good first step ...
