Apply Open Credits to the Payment 

When a customers has open credits (including overpayments, customer credits and transfer credits), the system will allow to apply the open credits directly to the payment in the same way which is done from the Receive Payments screen. You can apply partial payments using the open credits but you must cancel inmediately the remaining amount in order to confirm the invoice. In case the amount of the open credits applied is greater than the order total, the system will generate an overpayment.
