Sequence is this:
I have purchased goods, received those goods and paid the invoice.
Now I discover that I should return the goods.
I return the goods and I receive a credit invoice from the supplier.
So in the Purchases tab I enter a Credit Invoice
During editing the Credit Invoice I can select goods which I have returned.
On the Credit Invoice screen I enter the credit invoice and the goods returned.
This is all completely correct.
Accounts Payable is debited.
Goods Transactions shows that I have returned the goods from stock.
Stock account is credited.
Now this is where the error is:
When I go to Purchases tab -> Enter Supplier payments.
The Credit Invoice shows up in the list of eligible invoices to pay.
I can select the Credit Invoice to pay
When I select the Credit Invoice and select Pay All, the credit invoice is actually paid.
That is, Accounts Payable is debited.
My bank account is credited.
I don't think it should be this way. Two options:
1. Either the Credit Invoice should not show up in the list of invoices to pay,
or a payment should not be accepted.
OR
2. If the Credit invoice shows up and is selected to be "paid", then actually the A/P should be credited and the bank account must be debited.
Option #2 is easy, but not really correct in the sense that you don't pay anything. The transactions are correct though.
