Find most recent row per user and day in sql query

I want to find the most recent purchase per customer for each date (a customer might make multiple purchases on a given date and I want the most recent for that date). My dataframe looks something like the following:

Customer_id | Date                  | Payment  | Type
3             '2019-01-28 00:45:00'   128.93     Credit
2             '2019-01-26 01:00:00'    54.36     Debit
3             '2019-01-27 12:00:00'    93.99     Debit
3             '2019-01-28 03:15:00'   164.93     Credit
2             '2019-01-26 17:30:00'    56.74     Credit
2             '2019-01-28 19:15:00'    21.85     Credit

The output of the query should give me something like the following (I return one row per customer/date combination and order by customer/date. I don’t care about the Type – whether it is Credit or Debit):

Customer_id | Date          | Payment
2             '2019-01-26'    56.74
2             '2019-01-28'    21.85
3             '2019-01-27'    93.99
3             '2019-01-28'   164.93

Here is my code so far:

SELECT
    R1.Customer_id,
    date_trunc('day', R1.Date),
    R1.Payment
FROM Records R1
WHERE R1.Date = (SELECT MAX(R2.Date)
                 FROM Records R2
                 WHERE R2.Customer_id = R1.Customer_id)
GROUP BY Customer_id, date_trunc('day', R1.Date);

The example I gave is a simplification of the data I am working with and some of the filtering conditions, but should capture the main problem I am facing. Not really sure if that is on the right track, but it seems unhappy with the ‘Group by’ when I run the query. I am new to sql and would love help!

Answer

This query:

select Customer_id, Date::date, max(Date) maxdate from tablename group by customer_id, Date::date

gets the most recent date for each customer.
Join it to the main table to get the rows that contain the most recent date for each customer:

select t.Customer_id, t.date, tt.Payment from (
select Customer_id, Date::date date, max(Date) maxdate from tablename group by customer_id, Date::date
) t inner join tablename tt
on tt.customer_id = t.customer_id and tt.date = t.maxdate
