The amount owed stays in AR.

Who owes it is what changes.

Look, this isn't really about gnucash. And selling of A/R is far from unusual. But a list helping people use gnucash isn't the place to discuss "factoring" from scratch. But I will say this much.

If a business sells some or all of its A/R then it should be obvious that for THAT business those amounts no longer receivable but already received. Those become the business of the factor to collect. The factor would need to have the invoices.

I assume we are NOT talking about the unusual situation where you are keeping the books for both the first business and the second (separate entities, separate books).

PS --- In addition to sale to a factor, we also can have sale of "bad debt" to a collection agency. Again, once sold no longer receivables of the business.
