In the process of making this report, I found one voided transaction that is still showing on the report.  I'm not sure why this is showing up with the original transaction amount but in the report, it doesn't show as voided.  Why is this?

How did you "void" the transaction? In other words, what do you mean? 
(process)

The formal process mimics the old days of pen and ink on paper in bound 
books so nothing once entered was ever removed. Instead a 
correction/offset transaction would be entered. Depending on the date 
done, I could see this happening (mistake made last year, corrected in 
this year.

If you followed informal practice and simply deleted the transaction, 
did you rerun the report after? Deleting the transaction would not 
change an open report.
