Hi, I've got an available credit of .05c showing for a customer on A/R Ageing Summary from March 2018 as an invoice was overpaid. As this was last financial year and books have been closed for this period, what is the best way to clear this credit? I know I need to do a journal to Debit the amount from Customer but what do I process credit to? Thanks

    Hi Fiona

    You really don't need to do a journal entry - For a mere 5c you can just edit the invoice to match the payment.  (Tax forms/lodgements report in whole dollars only!)

    Following on from Shaz's suggestion - if you dont want to edit last years figures (which I probably but I am a bit weird like that!)...you could do an invoice in the current financial year for 5c and allocate it to an item for write off's or for a sales line...  then apply this to the credit.. cheers Linda
