Currently, the left over payment does not get applied automatically to
the account.  One would have to manually enter it as a credit or apply
it to a different invoice.  If one was paying an invoice, and had an
amount left over, rather than automatically apply the credit or put it
towards a different invoice, i thought it best for the user to do
something with it, since they are more aware of what the right thing
for that customer would be.  Maybe it should give a few choices:

Apply to the most recent unpaid invoice
Apply to the oldest unpaid invoice
Apply to the oldest unpaid services
Apply as a credit to the account
Maybe you entered an extra zero by accident, and they really didn't
pay you nine thousand dollars.
