    I suspect you may be looking at a scheduled transaction (aka a reminder) displayed in the register.  If so, you may choose to exclude reminders from the register by pressing Ctrl + Alt + N and choosing Reminders to show in register > Don't show reminders

    That does nothing, no list of reminders. The check register enter is a scheduled transaction that I no longer use.
    The transaction has a payment amount, which is throwing of the balance.

    If you have a Scheduled Reminder Transaction that you no longer use, just ignoring it or pushing it ahead to future dates doesn't really resolve the issue.
    You should delete this Scheduled Reminder.
    Go into Tools / Manage Bill and Income Reminders.
    Locate the reminder and click to select it (highlight it).
    Click on Delete in the Menu Bar at the top of the window.
