customers balance due used as a credit for our a/p to them

how is this entry completed.

Our customer xyz company owes us $1000.00 which of course is in our A/R, We in turn owe xyz company 250.00 which is in our A/P. The owner decided to tell xyz company to subtract what we owe them and mail a check for the difference and call it even....

accounting wise how is this handled?:
