Sorry, forgot that detail.

I’m not editing in the AR register. (generally, you should not do so)

I clicked the ‘payment’ link in the Customer Report. This opened my asset 
register that was used as the transfer account when I processed the payment. In 
this case, it was an Undeposited Funds account because they paid with a check. 
I edited the memo there.

Note, you *can* edit in the AR register, though it is not advised. If you 
really want to do the edit there, be sure to put the ‘description’ you want in 
the `memo` field of the non-AR split. (the transfer account you received the 
payment to) It will still show on the Customer Report.

If I’m not mistaken, I think the bug report I mentioned covers this issue with 
the AR edit not showing up on the Customer Report. (it also duplicates the same 
info in the Notes field - overwriting what was there, and vice versa)


Regards,
Adrien
