Hi Sally,
I have also seen some strange additional invoices and credits. I have gotten
price adjustments, as well as credits for "deep discounts" from 3 years
previous. Apparently, in some instances, it can take awhile for
publishers/vendors to adjust their accounts and pass it on to the customers.
I have gotten credit notes for invoices that were paid 3 years before, and
have nothing to apply them to.
