Follow up question on Checking Account Balancing

[ANTHONY NELSON]

Hi Matt,

Thank you for your prompt response.

Can you tell me where I go to delete the process payment transaction?  Would this be in the AR section?  Or somewhere else?

Many thanks,
Tony

Hi Tony.

Delete the process payment transaction for the $300, which you created.  Then 
process payment again, but alter the "ammount" box  to a partial payment of 
$100, dated in july.  Then process payment agian, for $200, dated in august.

HTH,
