How do I knock off a customer's invoices against its credit notes and advances?

Open Customer Settlement, pick the customer and currency, press Create, then auto-settle (or type positive amounts on invoices and negative ones on memos and advances) and Save. It posts at once.

  • "No rows for settlement of selected customer ..." One side is missing in that currency.
