I've been struggling with paying multiple invoices with a single payment in 
version 2.6 and it doesn't work for me.  I've been reverting to version 2.4.13 
to process my invoices.

Say I have two invoices the first for 400, the second for 600.  I receive a 
singe payment, by bank transfer, of 1000.  I open the payment dialog and pay 
1000 against the first invoice.  According to the mouseover text (below) the 
extra payment should be automatically assigned to the second invoice.  This was 
the old behaviour and worked perfectly, matching up the reality of the 1000 
deposit and paying off both invoices at a single stroke(or click).

Now however I try to so the same in 2.6 and it doesn't put the overpayent 
towards the next invoice like it should.  On attempting to pay the next invoice 
I see Pre-payment in the Process Payment dialog but no matter what I do with 
the Pre-payment it screws up my Bank register and doesn't get assigned to the 
invoice.

Additionally, from the text below which states "...or if no invoice was 
selected..." in either case I cannot make a payment without selecting an 
invoice.

In short, the new invoice payment system is broken for me and I can't use 
version 2.6 for my business.

If you have selected an invoice, GnuCash will propose the amount still due for 
it. You can change this amount to create a partial payment or an over-payment.
In case of an over-payment or if no invoice was selected, GnuCash will 
automatically assign the remaining amount to the first unpaid invoice for this 
company.

I thought I'd ask here in case I'd misunderstood the procedure before filing a 
bug report.
