  3. Click on the invoice in the Unpaid Invoices tab that you want to disburse the credit to. In the Disbursement Amount enter the amount you want to disburse to the invoice. Since the account in this example only has the 1 invoice we will disburse the entire $50 credit to it and click the Save button.

If you click on the Disbursements tab and you will see the $50 credit is now disbursed to invoice 18 and that the Amount left to disburse is 0.

...

Loading the Invoices screen under the account and looking at invoice 18, you can see the total charge is $140 but the balance is $50 lower at $90 due to the credit.

Lastly, if you need to reverse a credit after the bill run has attached it to an invoice, you can use the (blue star) button on the Credits screen. On the Confirm Reversal screen, click the Reverse button. The reversal will be applied the next time the account is billed resulting in a Reversed Credit transaction on the new invoice which will increase the invoice balance by the amount listed ($50 in this example).
