Thanks Adrien.
I'm running the latest version of gnuCash Version: 3.7Build ID:
3.7+(2019-09-07)on Windows 10.
In this case the PrePayments were left to accumulate until they were great
enough to cover an entire Monthly Bill.
Did not fill out the 'refund' portion of the payment window.
I'll run some experiments tomorrow and try to post back.
Thanks again for the help.

Yes, it should work that way and has for me in the past. I don’t know if
something recently has changed.
What version of GnuCash and what OS are you using?
You could have also applied the pre-payments each month, which would have
resulted in one larger pre-payment to apply rather than several little ones. It
should still work out either way.
Did you accidentally fill out the ‘refund’ portion of the payment window the
last time? If that is the case, then GnuCash thinks you got that $2 back in
change, so it no longer sits there as a pre-payment.
You can right-click and choose ‘Edit Payment’ to examine/fix this. The splits
in that payment transaction would also reflect a $2 debit back to cash/checking
accordingly which should be a tip-off.
As for formatting e-mail, just hit enter/return. I’ve separated my lines here
by hitting it twice.
Maybe your mail client is stripping out line endings so your sent copies may
not look right to you. Don’t worry about line length, that is determined by the
viewing client.
You might also prefer switching to viewing and/or composing in plain text. Of
course, you’ll have to get more creative for emphasis since bold, italic, and
underline would no longer be available. (I opt to view in plain text anyway -
so that is usually stripped out, thus sending in html doesn’t matter)
Regards,
Adrien
