I have an invoice here amounting to $1893.60 (purchases), a
credit note of $61.00. I have paid the vendor $1,832.40. How
should I record my entry?

I am aware that the credit note entry is using journal and
the payment is using payment voucher. But I am not sure how
to post the entry.

Please help. Many thanks.
