Moving customer invoice issue

SUGGESTED

Hi,

I've recently moved a customer's outstanding invoice from one customer account to another - the issue is that in the original customer account the invoice has been marked as cancelled and is no longer showing as outstanding (as expected) but an additional entry has been added creating a credit in that account for the amount of the invoice, with nothing to allocate it to.  How do I fix this?

    Hi,

    Thanks for using Sage City.

    How did you move the invoice from one account to the other?

    If I edit a customer invoice and change it to a different customer, it shows the invoice as "Deleted see tran X" on the original customer. The balance also goes to zero (as expected)

    It was moved by editing the transaction and changing the customer code.  The original transaction now says "Cancel" under Ref and the added credit transaction also says that along with "Cancel - see tran X" under Details.

    ah okay, so it sounds like the invoice has been included in a VAT Return. When you've moved the invoice the program has credited the invoice so the account is settled. (Nothing will be outstanding on the account as the invoice and credit are allocated together.

    On your next VAT Return, the credit will be picked up on the VAT Return as well as the newly-created invoice on the new customer's account.
