Clear a transaction In AP

Hi all,

The user came up with a concern saying that at first when a invoice was created and was mapped incorrectly to PO.

so they created a credit memo to refund all the amount and another invoice was created with corrections.

Now the status of the payment shows Negotiable which means no such payment has been made by bank

So if i manually clear the transaction will it affect GL?

Kindly guide on this.

Regards,

Tanvi Singh
