Mike, In such cases, you could try creating a credit note - this will reverse both the invoice and the bank deposit and you have the audit trail.
Then create a new invoice (but this time, wait until the cheque gets credited to your bank). You can always pre-date invoices after the cheque has cleared. FYI - credit note is on the same window as invoice creation - whenever you click on new invoice, the window that pops up has an option for you to specify whether it’s a new invoice or a new credit note (it defaults to new invoice). Cheers.

I recorded the payment and deposited the check. A couple of weeks later I got notice from my bank that the check had bounced. My question is how to record this. I want to ?unpay? the invoice and charge the amount back to the customer, but I can?t find a good way to do this. I tried entering a transaction to debit Accounts Receivable and credit the bank account after which I manually added the split in A/R to the lot for that invoice. This sort of worked, but the invoice is still marked paid in the customer report. I can, however, select it in the ?Process Payment? dialog to pay it again and it shows up as unpaid in the receivables aging report. Can I do better than this?
