Is it?

Is it attached or enclosed? If it were stapled to the letter then it would be attached, if it were in the same envelope is would be enclosed.

There could be many copies made for different purposes. So it is not 'the copy' but 'a copy'.

The 'remittance' is the money paid to the other person. What is being referred to here is proof of the remittance and not the remittance itself.

Thank you so much for your corrections

It is actually an email which I am sending to my supplier for their information that i have remitted the amount for the material I m purchasing from them. So, I am pasting again with your correction....

Please find attached a proof of remittance for your information.

Kindly acknowledge the receipt of payment and inform us of the shipment schedule at your earliest convenience.

the receipt of payment
I think this is not logically correct as the payment is not a tangible or thing can to be received!
We can say that kindly acknowledge the receipt of materials, letter or even email but not "Payment", expense or charge. I prefer to use "money" or "funds" in stated of word "payment".
