Edit a payment?

[Nelson Handcock]

In my experience, I've found it best to delete the payment and then
re-enter it.

So go to the customer/supplier account listing - click on the payment
amount (which should take you to the account where the payment currently
sits) - delete the entry (which will also delete the associated records in
the A/R or A/P ledger) - and then re-do the payment using the correct
accounts.

Hope this helps....
