Question

"the value of the line item amounts don't add up to the total amount specified". What the hell is this and how do I get rid of it? I'm suddenly getting this error.

I haven't changed anything about anything, just suddenly when I'm filling out invoices the same way that I have for years, I keep getting this error.
