I am new to Peachtree and accounting. I am trying to convert our agency from paper/pencil bookkeeping to using Peachtree. The first year is a trial period to make sure we are matching up the books the "old" way.
We are an independent insurance agency. I have been entering payments made. I used our checkbook, extended the payments correctly. During the course of entering payments to vendors, I have entered payments made to various insurance companies on our customers behalf. The customers are then set up on account and become part of our accounts receivable. Now I am trying to set up the invoicing to our customers. (We still hand type the invoices.) But, I'm not sure if I can do the following since I have already credited our checking acct and debited our A/R as a paid bill . If we go to set up our invoicing this late in the game , do I have to back out all the payments made on behalf of our customers that were set up on A/R, or can I use the customers current balance our manually kept account cards show and then set up the invoicing without effecting what has already been done.

Please provide some clarification. Payments to the insurance company are an accounts payable transaction. Please explain "debited our A/R as a paid bill."
