-    - One payment can go towards more than one charge
-    - One charge can be paid for by more than one payment

-  - Reverse a charge
-    To make charge reversal work, I'm presently issuing a credit note
-    (transaction) that has 3 ledger entries:
-       Debit charged account   -  Credit A/R
-       Debit A/R               -  Credit "Credit" account
-       Debit "Credit" account  -  Credit A/R
-    And 3 statement entries:
-       Reversal on charged account
-       Negative Disbursement on "Credit" account
-       Positive Disbursement on "Credit" account
-
-    Obviously, the two "Credit" account ledger entries cancel each other
-    out.  However, the monies need to be reversed in the A/R account, and a
-    previous transaction will have already performed an A/R credit and so
-    the two A/R credits will create an imbalance in A/R unless we move
-    those funds to our "Credit" account.  The "Credit" account statement
-    entries are needed to undo any previous disbursement to the charge
-    being reversed, and then to re-disburse those funds to a different
-    charge (or possibly just a Surplus entry if no other charges exist.)
