Package: gnucash
Version: 1.8.10-12
Severity: normal
If you enter the wrong company for an invoice
there is no obvious way to fix it. One can find the bill
and un-post it, but the bill still exists, and one cannot
edit the vendor even after the bill is un-posted.
(I know that sounds weird, but it was an automatically scheduled
payment that doesn't have a paper invoice, and I was entering
the information from a bank statement that showed the transaction.
I accidentally entered the bank as the vendor, instead of the
company that was being paid.)

Version: 1.8.12-8
Hi Greg,
I no longer have a copy of 1.8.10 to test, but the option does exist in
gnucash 1.8.11 under the Edit menu to Edit the Invoice. This brings up
the original dialogue that allows you to select a different
customer/vendor and/or job. The current version of gnucash in Debian
unstable contains this fix.
This feature has been further enhanced in gnucash 1.9.5 (experimental)
where the "Edit Invoice" functionality appears as a button on the
toolbar, but the original functionality is present in 1.8.12 so I'm
closing this bug.
The Bill or Invoice does have to be unposted before the customer or
vendor can be altered, but if the bill or invoice has either not been
posted or has been posted and then unposted, the customer/vendor can be
changed by editing the invoice.
(I know it's confusing when bills and invoices use the same code with
different labels.)
Thank you for your bug report!
