Join nowIt does not happen all the time, so I forget to double check the amount being paid, but why does it do it in the first place? When creating a payment from a supplier account of open bills I will check the box in front of the entry and the amount of the open balance is usually the same as the original amount.
I've noticed that if there is a credit on the account it happens but when I've discovered it the amount of the credit is the total of the original amount minus the credit, even if the credit is not to be applied to that bill I am paying.
The attached sample the open balance is not the total of the original amount minus the vendor credit of $250.00 The original amount is $1,068.00. Quickbooks changed the open amount to $170.00.
There was no change to the bill from when it was first entered to when I selected it to pay, so why Quickbooks made the open balance to $170.00 has not logical reason
Welcome back to the Community space, @actionglass.
I understand how challenging on your end to see that one of your vendor's bill transactions has a different OPEN BALANCE and ORIGINAL AMOUNT totals. Let me help you figure this out.
In most cases, this usually happens when the Bill has payment applied to it. To confirm this, click the Bill below the DESCRIPTION column that has a difference in their total amounts. Then, you'll be moved to its transaction form.
If you see no applied payment, let's perform the same task using the QBO test drive account. Feel free to click this link: https://qbo.intuit.com/redir/testdrive.
After that, if the Bill Payment page is showing no issue, this might be a browser-related concern. To confirm this, let's perform some basic troubleshooting steps. Start by accessing your QBO account via incognito mode to avoid storing cache files that may cause odd behaviors when running web-based programs. Below are the shortcut keys you can use:
Then, check your Bill payments. If this works, clear the cache of your regular browser to eliminate piled-up data. If the issue persists, you can use another supported browser or device. It might be that the current one you're using has a temporary issue with the program.

Sorry, this is not really a solution because it does not happen consistently. I would have to wait for the issue to happen again and then use your test.
