There are two reports that will help you. You can use the Aging Report and the Unapplied Transaction List to track down and verify payments.

Print the Aging Report because it will not group by master category but it will show you what's unpaid by customer. The Aging Report will show you the transactions that make up the grand total.

Print the Unapplied Transaction List because it will only show you credit memos and payments that have not been applied. You can set up the report to show the invoice detail.
