I applied a credit memo to an invoice in error. I want to remove that memo. I found on internet these steps:
(Title has been edited by moderator for clarity)
But, i cannot find the Apply Credits button. Where is located this button?
Thanks,
Pisicu
Solved! Go to Solution.
In Desktop, AP credits can be opened and changed to a Bill, at the top, which forces the program to Release the link that applied it. Then, Change it back to a Credit.
I attached an image showing the Ribbon for AR and the Icon at the top.
What version of QuickBooks are you using? If qbo, open the invoice and you will see blue hyperlink to the credit that is applied. Then you can unapply it by deleting the payment transaction that applied it.
or are you using qb desktop?
"Double-click the invoice on which the credit was applied. Click the Apply Credits button."
In Desktop, open the Transactions and they have Ribbons = icons at the top. One of which is Credits.
Sorry, I forgot to mention that I use a QB Desktop version. I doubled check and I do not have that feature. Do you know how to remove the credit memo in QB Desktop?
Thank you.
Are you on windows qb or mac qb. It makes a difference. What year version? To unapply the vendor credit, I would click to duplicate it and then delete the original in qb desktop. Not the greatest way, but it worked for me.

Is this for online or for desktop. I can not find the "apply credits" button. Please help
My client has QuickBooks for MAC and has wrongly applied some credits to customer invoices. How do we fix this in MAC? The only solution I have is to delete the credit memos and then recreate them and apply to the proper invoice but if there is an easier solution such as the one for PC it would be a big help. PLEASE ANSWER RE: MAC.
Welcome to the Community, @Sandy P.
Right now, the only available option is to delete and recreate the credit memo applied to the wrong invoice. In case you need the steps, here's how:
For future reference, you can make use of the user guides I'm attaching below. It contains detailed instructions on the features available for the product:

Thank you. I appreciate your attention. I wish the Powers that Be at Intuit would get their act together and get the years of history behind QBs Desktop to be available in QBs for MAC. That program is definitely in need of some attention by Intuit to get it up to the abilities of QBs Desktop.
On another topic, has anyone had experience with a QBs Enterprise Desktop issue whereby the client's data keeps getting corrupted and Intuit can't seem to find the problem? We discovered it has something to do with one of the users, but even though we have used the portable file that Intuit sent back where they said they fixed some things, didn't really fix much of anything I could find, the issues still existed with unmatched invoices, payments, bills, payments, and Purchase Orders, And even after recreating the file, entering all missing data for the period of time Intuit had the file, and removing the user that was causing the problem...still more corruption is occurring. This is the second time this client has gotten a "fixed" file from Intuit without any fixes to the real issues. They had to completely start a new file for 1/1/18, and after using for two years file corruption was occurring again. HELP!!! I will post this in the appropriate place as well.
Repairing your QuickBooks company file is our priority, @Sandy P.
When you install QuickBooks into your computer, you’ll see 3 different file types - QBW, QBB and QBA. Usually, it is the working data file (.QBW) that gets damaged and becomes inaccessible. Thus, you’re always asked to create a back-up copy of your company’s file (.QBB). By doing so, you can always restore a clean copy of your company file used it as the working file.
Let’s verify and rebuild your data to resolve recurring data damage issues.
1. Update QuickBooks Desktop to the latest release
a. Open QuickBooks.
b. On the taskbar at the top, go to QuickBooks.
c. Select Check for QuickBooks Updates.
d. If you don’t have the latest release, follow on-screen prompts to install.
2. Verify the integrity of the company file
a. Click File.
b. Choose Utilities.
c. Select Verify Data.
d. If a problem is detected:
i. Go to File.
ii. Select Utilities.
iii. Choose Rebuild Data.
iv. Run the Verify Data from step 1 one more time.
v. If it still fails, restore a backup or contact technical support.
You can perform the Rebuild Utility Tools for at least 3 times. For more detailed instructions, you can check this article: Fix data damage on your QuickBooks Desktop company file.

I have this same problem on the Mac version.
Two points:
1. It's ridiculous that I have to delete and re-enter the CM to fix this. Just ridiculous.
2. It's equally ridiculous that when I do a search on the issue I get pointed to a solution that doesn't apply to my version at all.
I hear your sentiments, @byomtov.
In QuickBooks for Mac, you'll want to delete and recreate the credit memo to apply it correctly to the transactions. It ensures records are accurate.
You can check this information to create and apply credit memos to an invoice. This contains complete instructions, so the customer's balance will be reduced.
