When I run a trial balance, right at the bottom the sums are given. The one
on the left is £7 higher than the one on the right. I believe I know the
source of this problem, but can't seem to get rid of it.

I'm in the UK, but sold something to a customer who wanted to pay in Euros.
The item was sold at 500 Euros. The bank converted €500  to £427.76, took a
£7 fee, and deposited £420.76 into the account.

Unfortunately, when entering the transaction into GnuCash, I created a
split and  put the £7 bank fee into Expense -> Bank Charges. The result is
that £7 is accounted for twice. I'm show it as an expense, but the bank
statement has already taken this into account.

No matter what I do, I can't seem to get rid of this £7 issue. I unposted
the invoice, and then deleted the transaction. This removes £420.76  from
the bank account and removes the £7 from the bank charges. But if I run a
trial balance, there's still a £7 difference.

I've tried Actions -> Check and Repair -> Check and Repair All. That does
not help.

I know £7 is not a lot, but it is annoying me. I would like to try to solve
the problem.
