Retainer entry and discount on an invoice

Hello!

 

I have been using retainers for payments received from customers (when creating an invoice, I enter a retainer as negative balance), as our company receives payments before delivering the products. 

 

I came across an invoice with a discount.  When I followed the exact same way above, QBO warning said I cannot have a discount more than a balance on the invoice.  

 

How do I property enter the retainer in this scenario?

Thank you!

enter the retainer first, then if there is a balance left, use the discount

you can not have an invoice with a balance due of less than zero
