Matching accidental deposit

I recently deposited two checks to my bank account and it pulled in to the online bank feed as one single deposit ($200 +$100 = $300). The problem is one of those checks was deposited in error, while the other does match an open customer invoice. When I go to "match", it won't let me match $200 to the open customer invoice because the $300 deposit amount is $100 more than what the invoice states. How do I "clear" that $100 deposit? Through my bank I set up an ACH payment to have the $100 withdrawn from the account and transferred to the correct one.
