File -> Properties -> Business

However there appears to be a bug in GtkHTML in that it doesn't print
the name properly.

Sorry, no clue.

Did you, perhaps, click off the "active" button?  Have you tried to
search for all invoices?

You need to either go through the invoice search, or you can run a
"register report" on A/R and then click from there.  There was no way
hook in a "link" from the register to the invoice editor.

T: Type ('I'nvoice or 'P'ayment)
Ref: the Invoice Reference (this is the "invoice id")
P: I believe I meant this to be "paid".  It's the 'reconciled' flag
   from a normal interface
