By giving out each address only to one counterparty, you can use them as invoices to identify who paid you: the party that you gave the address to.

You can also label each address to make the invoicing easier.  You can give your friend one address for item #1 and a second one for item #2.  You will then be able to keep track of what has been repaid by checking if funds have been sent to that address yet

Thanks @Brandon and Murch - this is exactly what I wanted to know, and the labelling will make this a lot easier.

Okay so having a look and I'm not having much looking finding something that clearly meets my reqs. I need a command-line Dogecoin BIP32 wallet (I can find a lot of Bitcoin ones)? Any recommendations?

@cardycakes, Doge is kinda a meme.  You won't find good support for it, but I think the reference implementation can do what you want. https://github.com/dogecoin/dogecoin

<p>If I have a single Dogecoin wallet, can I create multiple addresses for that wallet such that I can identify which payments were sent to which address?</p>
<p>For example:</p>
<pre><code>1 Dogecoin Wallet with balance 0
3 addresses
A payment of 5 Doge is sent to address 1
A payment of 10 Doge is sent to address 2
A payment of 15 Doge is sent to address 3
The Dogecoin wallet now has a balance of 30 Doge
When I look at the Wallet, I know the payment of 5 Doge was made to address 1
</code></pre>

Can a single wallet have multiple addresses, that can be used to distinguish payments?
