Marking Invoices with a Negative Net as Paid

Question

We have a sitution where the total we owe a Vendor is a negative amount.(The net of some positive invoices and a large credit invoice) The vendor issues us a credit check for the total. But I cannot apply that check to those invoices. 
 So now the invoices still show up on my 'Invoices to Pay list" and my Accounts Payable GL total isn't accurate becuase it should not include that negative balance. 
 Is there a way to somehow mark those invoices that net a negative as paid? I tried issuing a $0 check but it only does it for a net of $0, not a negative net amount.

Do I understand correctly that the vendor gave you a refund check? If so, this article explains how to enter a vendor refund:
How do I enter a refund from a vendor in Accounts Payable?

Since you already have the credit invoice entered, you'll skip step 1.
The positive invoice you enter in step 2 will be for the balance of the credit (the refund amount you received).
In step 3, you'll record the 0.00 payment to pay the credit invoice and the positive invoices, including the invoice created in step 2.
