In order to set a credit for the same Charge, simply add a new Charge of the same Charge Catalog and make the Amount field negative. This will ONLY work if the Charge in question is a Non-Recurring Charge. Otherwise, the effect would be to set up a recurring credit which would not be desirable. For this example, there is a $421 Charge that was applied to a Service incorrectly.
