Thanks for joining us here on the Community, lee55

 

To do this, please open the invoice and click on '1 payment made' showing in the top-right > select the date to open the invoice payment. 

 

From here, you can select More > Delete to remove the payment - if you had matched the payment to the invoice from the banking screen, this will automatically move the transaction back into the 'For-Review' tab where you can apply it to the correct invoice. :)

Hi

 

I have a similar issue - payment matched to the wrong invoice.  So I found the page where I can unselect the payment from the wrong invoice and select the correct invoice.  Same amount on both invoices.

 

When saving, it comes up that the transaction I am editing is linked to others, if I click Yes, it comes up with the transaction has already been reconciled and by saving I can put it out of balance when I come to reconcile.  Do I say Yes???

Hi LucyMDC, 

 

Please select yes to this message to apply the payment to the correct invoice, if this is dated within a period that has been reconciled, you can then reconcile this by going to the Cog > Reconcile > Select the account to reconcile and enter the same ending date and ending balance as the last saved reconciliation. :)
