Another option is to check the sales ledger:<strong> Reports -&gt; Sales ledger -&gt;<\/strong> select the customer. The advantage of viewing from the sales ledger is that you can immediately see the customer&#8217;s balance. By clicking on the invoice line in the report, the invoice view will open.<\/p>\n<span class=\"su-label su-label-type-warning\"><strong>Advice<\/strong><\/span> If you create a credit note directly from the original (unpaid) invoice, the system will immediately offer to mark both the credit note and the original invoice as paid when saving.
