[GNC] How to stop credit notes from being automatically applied to newer invoices

[Adrien Monteleone]

I issued a credit note to a customer for materials that is going to be applied to a future invoice when the work is completed.

In the meantime, I’ve done other unrelated work for the customer and each time I post those invoices, the outstanding credit note is automatically used to offset them, sometimes partially, which is quite a mess. I have to keep editing the Lots window and deleting these errant splits so the invoices properly show as needing to be paid and the payments can properly be applied.

Is there some way to prevent this credit note from being used to offset an invoice automatically? I don’t necessarily want to unpost it, but I don’t want to ‘pay’ it until the relevant job is complete, at which time I’ll use it to offset *that* invoice before issuing it to them for final payment.

Would assigning a ‘job’ to the credit note prevent it from being used automatically?
