You will indeed require a credit note for the remainder. You can still create 
it now. Creating a credit note is the same as creating an invoice, except you 
choose "credit note" instead of "invoice".

Once the credit note is created, you can select to pay it, as you would for 
invoices. In the payment window you will find the $8 due payment and apply 
that to the credit note.
