    is the invoice post dated?

     

    Can you do a find transaction on the amount that is showing?

     

    If you do a accounts receivable report does it show? Can you drill down from there to see the invoice?

     

    A screenshot of it would be helpful if these suggestions don't help

        Try going into recieve payments

        select the customer there may be a credit that needs to be allocated perhaps 

        you may need to select include closed sales

    I bet there is a finance charge allocated to it somehow.  I have the same problem, from past users of the file, and because the file has been purged over the years, I can't get rid of them.  

    My work around for this, if you need to still need to use that card was to make a dummy customer card, and then combine the customer with the charge to the dummy card then start a new card for the existing customer.  Then I just inactivated the dummy card, entering a z in the front of the name, so it always sits on the bottom of any lists.  Messy, but I had so many, it was the only way to get rid of them all.  Hope this helps.
