Sames invoice paid twice

Hi there, I have a customer who has paid the same invoice twice so his account is in credit. He is now longer in business so I can't refund him -so I would like to "write it off" before the end of the year. This is nearly 2 years old now - please advise how I can do this. Thanks in advance for your help.

    Hi busterboo367 

     

    Thank you for your post. You can write off the invoice as a bad debt. To write off a bad debt, you enter a negative value sale to create a credit note that can be used to close the sale you won’t be receiving payment for. This enables you to adjust the customer's balance. This Help Article, Accounting for bad debts, has more detailed information that you can use as a guide.
