I'm referring to tables in the backend database. There are two tables that 
relate to invoices, i.e., entries and invoices. The two tables are related by 
the fields entries.invoice = invoice.guid.

This refers to the invoice field of the entries database table, i.e., 
entries.invoice.

I guess 'record' is more appropriate. The invoice field of each record in the 
entries table should have a corresponding record in the invoices table (joined 
at the guid field).

So, I am saying that the importer created records in the entries table that had 
no corresponding record in the invoices table. You can view them with the 
following sql statement.

SELECT
        entries.invoice

        FROM entries
        LEFT OUTER JOIN invoices ON entries.invoice = invoices.guid
        WHERE invoices.guid IS NULL
        GROUP BY entries.invoice

What I did was match these orphan invoices with the appropriate transactions in 
the transactions table (the invoices and transaction tables are related by the 
transaction guid) to create the records that needed to be inserted into the 
invoices table.
