An sales invoice has been raised in error against a customer, and a credit memo therefore raised against it. Both now appear as outstanding on the customers ledger. I thought I would then be able to apply one against the other in a cash receipt or sales journal to clear them off, however, if I try and post such a journal through, I recieve an error because the amount of the journal line is zero. How do I get around this? ---

I’ve just used the apply entries option behind the Customer Ledger Entries Form, this seems to do what I was after. Thanks anyway. Gary ---

Hello Garry, If we apply credit note to the (to be cancelled) invoice, while creating Credit note itself , we wont be required to go to Customer Ledger.System will cancel both Invoice and Credit note and remainng amount will be 0. ---

Hi Rajesh, The problem is this is after the event. Someone has only just noticed the documents weren’t applied to each other on creation
