Thank you for the solution! It seems this is the best approach, I have one additional question. The sales receipt is linked to a bank deposit. Will this affect anything by deleting it?

I will follow the protocol going forth https://quickbooks.intuit.com/learn-support/en-us/help-article/invoicing/manage-upfront-deposits-ret... choosing option 2 instead of creating a sales receipt. But I currently have 6 sales receipts linked to bank deposits so I want to ensure those are handled correctly before changing to option 2. 

Thank you so much!
