A few weeks ago I received a check in payment for an invoice I had sent to a

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.

my opinion is you are overthinking this

>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?

The accounting is ordinary, the customer owes you the money from the original date.

The invoice, payment, bounce sequence is a record of events. I think this should show in your accounts, other people think it shouldn't, dunno why, it is a reflection of the person that didn't pay, not you.

Ordinary solution? Make a new invoice and let the person know you expect it to be paid.
