What you're seeing

A payment is sitting on one or more voided invoices, and you can't apply that money to another invoice that still has a balance. The credit appears stuck on the voided invoices.

Why this happens

There is 1 common reason.

Reason 1

A payment on a voided invoice doesn't move on its own.

To put that money toward another invoice, you apply it to the open invoice using Save without charging, then zero out the voided invoices so they don't keep showing a balance.

How to fix it

1Apply the amount to the open invoice, then clean up the voided invoices

  1. Find and go to the invoice where you want to apply the payment.

  2. Click Collect and Apply next to the charge.

  3. Select Save without charging from the dropdown menu.

  4. Enter the amount you want to apply.

  5. Click Save. (If you get an error message when using a credit card payment type, try a different payment type.)

  6. Zero out each voided invoice so it no longer shows a balance. On each voided (adjustment) invoice, add a negative task to remove the invoice's tasks, then add a negative payment of the same amount to offset the payment that was on it.

✓ Done · The open invoice shows the payment applied, and each voided invoice nets to a zero balance.
