[GNC] Imbalance bug in credit note generation?

[Amish]

Can someone using Gnucash for Business account please check credit note 
creation?

I am wondering how come noone came across this bug. It is a serious bug 
unless I am doing something wrong.

This bug is now affecting maintaining business account for me.

Without "correctly assigned / balanced" credit notes all figures come 
out wrong.

Bug report:
https://bugs.gnucash.org/show_bug.cgi?id=796766

I am wondering if developers know this or not. As it has not been 
assigned to anyone or acknowledged.

So please check.

Thank you.

Amish
