Double PO and Receipts

Ok, this is a little confusing and it involves POSTED POs and Receipts - that need to be killed and it doesn't show up as a payable.

Here is what happened.

Salesperson placed an order - drop-shipped so he created a drop-ship PO.

Vendor double-shipped, and double-invoiced.

Customer decided to keep both, so purchasing told the salesperson to generate another PO for the doubled invoice (2nd po never submitted to vendor).

Vendor called - 2nd invoice not yet paid.

Another purchasing agent had yet another PO generated for the doubled invoice - not knowing what the other did. It got received using an almost identical vendor invoice number (they appended a period to it).

Everything is posted, and the third one needs to be killed - though being posted that presents an issue.

Any ideas on how to handle this? (I hate miscommunication)
 
manually close off the PO via PO edit?

and they wonder why they call it Great Pains!

Closing the PO isn't the problem - it's already been closed. It still shows up as a payable though - when it really shouldn't.
