Hello @Jgrohl 

To account for bad debts in AccountEdge, you'll want to create a Bad Debt expense account. Please see instructions to do this in AccountEdge here, and note that we do recommend consulting an accountant when setting up a new expense account. Then, you will be able to use that Bad Debt expense account to apply a negative credit to the sale(s) associated with the client, and you will then be able to close off those invoices.
