Geert,

   While I cannot be certain of each step, I recall adding a new vendor, then
adding an invoice. When I finished I went back and posted each invoice.

   When I went to pay the invoices I looked at the A/P aging report and saw
that two of the three vendors showed they had been paid.

   If there's a way to unwind all this I'll do that and start over. This will
probably be the quickest and cleanest way to correct invoices and accounts
payable.

   Because I need to put checks in the mail today I used my former
bookkeeping software to enter A/P invoices and pay them by printing checks.
Then I returned to GnuCash and in my checking account I entered the check
number, vendor name, and amount paid to the A/P account in Liabilities.
