Correct way to deal with a credit note in 1.8.7

Hi List,
I hope someone can help me with this -
I've been using 1.8.7 for a while for business accounts, and I am having
difficulty with entering details for a vendor who has issued a credit note,
to rebate a bill which overcharged me.
My first thought was to enter it in GC as a "negative bill" - which made my
AP add up, but then when I paid the balance in the normal way, I ended up
with the bills due reminder still wanting an additional payment.
So I unposted the "negative bill" and tried to make a payment from the
relevant expense account, which also didn't work. (couldn't transfer from
the expense account in the payment dialogue)
I also tried a manual refund from the expense account to the AP account, but
then the bills due reminder still didn't know about the refunded credit
note.
Anybody got any suggestions how I can make GC cope with this situation
correctly?
I'm sure that someone out there must have met this problem before!
TIA,
Maf.
