Hi,

http://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=350199

A simple workaround at the moment is to just use "Process Payment" as
the credit-memo.

I'll note that this is NOT "really basic requirement", as I've run
my business off this code since 2002 and I've never needed it.  And,
well, I wrote the code to scratch my own itch.  Patches are always
welcome.
