Hi JoanneSweno
Thank you for your post. I'd like to extend you a warm welcome to the Community Forum. I hope you find it a valuable resource.
There are different ways to handle customer overpayments, you can apply the second payment ($1414) to the same invoice.
I'll provide you our Help Article, Customer overpayments and double payments, that has detailed instructions to assist with this.

When I try to apply the $1414 to the same invoice, I tick the closed sales box but the invoice is not showing as closed to be able to apply the $1414. Is that because it has a credit of $2086 from the first overpayment? Do I need to to go to 'Returns and Credits' and 'Pay Refund' first for the $2086 credit so the invoice will show as closed? I hope this makes sense
Hi JoanneSweno
Thank you for your response.
Could you please try checking your invoice if it is still showing as open in the open invoices fields. I would recommend to settle the credit for the first over payments and process refund. Then try to apply the other overpayments to the same invoice. This should be showing once you ticked the include closed invoice.
