I don’t think there is a way. I just zero it out manually too and let it all go to A/R and then use the funds as a pre-payment that I later apply.
If you create a credit memo first since you know they’ll be getting that discount, you can ‘pay’ it as part of the process. Another option is to book the payment against a Customer Deposits liability account and then pay out invoices from there as you go using just the exact amount needed.
