    Hi Christine:

    To apply a Credit Memo, you use Sales>Transactions>Apply Sales Documents

    Pull up the customer, under that choose the type of document you wish to apply to open invoices, then you choose the document itself below that.

    Click the apply check box next to what you want to apply it to.

    If you use this window – you will not get an edit list.

    Most of the time it won’t make a GL Entry, unless you use the write-off fields because the original entries will offset each other – for instance the invoice will have debited Accounts Receivable, but the Credit Memo credited AR – negating each other. So, unless you are writing off, no GL Entries are made.

    Also, on the sales side it may not be actually moving either document to history – unless you’ve got a customization you must manually move paid transactions to history in the sales module.

    All of this said, I’m not sure I fully understand where you are seeing it “Open” and where you are seeing it “History”.

    If you’d like, upload some screenshots so we can better assist.
