Posted payment plan payment to account, can't correct it.

[mzrdmd]

My FD erroneously applied a payment directly to a patient's account instead of to the payment plan. The patient's wife is the guarantor of the payment plan. His account is now showing a credit of $200, and the payment plan is showing that he did not make the payment. I can't delete the deposit from the regular account because it is part of a deposit from the last week of January. How can I straighten this out ? I'm trying to do my billing, and this snafu is really screwing up their statement.

Thanks,

Mike

Maybe a payment of $0 with 2 splits on it, one for -200 to the regular account, and the other for 200 to the payment plan?

could the OP just delete the one deposit in question then remove the one item that doesn't belong and then remake the deposit with the old date?

Yes, that's the usual suggested workaround, but the original post indicated that that was not easy to do for some reason.

It wouldn't let me delete the deposit. I don't remember what the reason was.

I just posted an adjustment to the account of -200 with a note that it was transferred to the payment plan. Then I posted a payment to the payment plan, and that was it. Dunno why I didn't think of that sooner !

Thanks for the help, BTW.
