Vendor A has Job X.  I created an invoice for Vendor B and assigned
Job X.  The invoice was created for Vendor A (from the Job) but I
didn't notice, so I had to unpost it.  It's the same job from my
company's perspective, and the same person, but A was him personally
and B was his new LLC.  I wasn't able to change the vendor from the
invoice edit screen.  The erroneous invoice cannot be re-used.  I
created a new Job Y for Vendor B and created a new invoice.
