I've had this same problem for 3 months now.  Several chat sessions,  several phone calls to both QBO and Intuit payment services and a Forum posting here and the problem still persists.  I see many other people posting the same problem here over the past few weeks and the response seems to always be "clear your browser cache" - that is a waste of time.    Removing the transaction removed the invoice it was attached to requiring reentering the invoice from scratch.  Reapplying payment just brings back the error. 

I thought I making progress when an Intuit support person promised Engineering would fix the problem but as I mentioned the problem has still persisted for 3 months.
