If your invoice is negative, you need to create or import a credit memo.

It sounds like the invoice in the IIF file has a negative balance.

Hope this helps. If so please mark solved, if not please ask more questions. Thanks!

I get this warning when I want to import an invoice not a credit. This warning happens when I put the Accounts Receivable account and amount on the last SPL of the transaction. If I put Accounts Receivable info on the TRNS line the file imports with no problem.

Does this mean that the sequence of the accounts in TRNS and SPL matter?
