accounts payable problem

[Murphy]

we are using 8.0, network version, on Windows NT. We paid three invoices out of open payables, seemed normal at the time. Checks ran fine, vendor ledger shows invoices paid. If I edit the invoices, they show Paid In Full. Disbursement journal looks normal, posted to GL just fine. My problem is that the three invoices are still in my open payables (of course, the detail doesn't balance to the gl now). How the heck can I get these invoices out of the open payables, since the system thinks they have already been paid? Anybody know, or have I won the incredible question of the year award?

Hi! I hope to help ya! First - I may "ask" what could be understood as a "dumb" question - but sometimes when you work with Peach a lot it become repeatitive and we overlook common entries. So here goes - did you create your payable first? When you generated actual check did the window give you the option to check (the apply to payables) & pay? Or did it get entered on the "straight payment" area? In the past I have deleted my actual payment (check) NOT void - just delete and rebuild and print on white paper. What leads me to believe this could help is that you state you can edit your payable - look at the balance of your payable... Please let me know if I helped you.

Thanks, kaydix. That was the tip I needed - I deleted the checks in question, and then "paid" the invoices with dummy checks. Worked like a charm!!!
