Unapplied Payment
How can I apply an "unapplied payment" to an invoice?
We received a payment on 5/30/08 and entered it in the "Accept Customer Payments" screen. They overpaid by $5000 so we left the payment leaving $5000 as "unapplied".
Now, when we run an A/R Aging, the $5000 credit shows up as a line item.
The client has finally told us what invoice they would like the overpayment applied to, however, the invoice is on a sub-customer account, so we cannot simply edit the payment and apply it. (We do not have the "accept customer payments through parent customer only" option turned on.)
What is the most efficient way to apply the $5000 to the sub-customer invoice?
