I've not yet figured out how to subtract wire transfer fees from invoice
payments. When I go to Cash -> Receipt and see the single line for an
outstanding invoice (for US$x, how do I enter payment of x-US$10 and charge
that $10 to the bank service fees account?

  The situation, briefly, is that I'm retained by a client paying from their
corporate offices in Canada. At the beginning of each month I send an
invoice for US%x and a couple of weeks later x-US$10 is transferred to my
bank account. The difference is what their bank charges them for the wire
transfer.

  Since the invoice I send is for $x, that's the amount shown as due in A/R
outstanding and displayed when I want to debit the payment to my checking
account.

  Until I learn how to handle this within L123, when payment has been made I
retroactively change the invoice to subtract that $10 from the amount due.
Since bank fees are a business expense, I'd like to have them reflected on
the books.

  Please offer your ideas and suggestions.
