You could do one of the following:
- Simply delete the invoice transaction from your Customer Invoices account register.
- Mark the invoice transaction as "Void" to retain a $0.00 record of your invoice (right-click the invoice transaction, select "Void transaction" from the popup. Write the original invoice amount into the Memo field, to retain a record of the amount owed.
- The bookkeeper in me would write the invoice amount off as Bad Debt. For this you need a "Bad Debt" Business Expense category (see image). Create it, if necessary. Now perform this procedure to create a Credit transaction to write off the amount due: https://help.quicken.com/pages/viewpage.action?pageId=3216952 After all, it's a loss to your business and should be recorded as such for tax purposes ... please check with your tax accountant.
