I paid a vendor twice for the same invoice - how do I account for that?

I know, I know - too much money and not enough brains... But let's cut me some slack and ease it back to a good month fluffing up cash at hand, delayed attention to paying other debts,  and not enou...

    Hi PloughGuy,

     

    Very interesting post! To be honest, I love writing skills!:smileyhappy:

     

    To record overpayments or double payment, this is a help article which will guide you 

     

    Pay a bill twice

    Apply the first payment to the unpaid (open) bill as you normally do and then record another supplier payment and apply the second payment to the same bill. As this bill is now paid (or closed), you'll need to select the Include Closed Purchases option to see it. A debit for the second payment will be automatically created.

    You record the payment using the Pay Bills window or by selecting the Pay Bills option in the Band Feeds window. 

    After creating the debt, you can settle it by receiving a refund or applying it to a future bill. For more information on settling supplier debits, see the AccountEdge help (Australia) 

     

     

    Hope this helps and let us know how you go. Looking forward to hearing from you. :smileyhappy:

    Well done! Thank you.  Exactly 

     

    Research reveals that I made the initial payment while I was on holiday in Norway.  I expect Akvavit may be implicated.

     

    And this happened at about the same time...

    The runner is me.  The amazing dive was done by our guide.  I expect you would have done the same thing.
