Payments

Hi there, DTetzlaff.

 

Good to see you here in the Community. I'm by no means an accounting professional, but I do have some insight to provide that can help get you on the right track.

 

In situations like this, it's still generally recommended that you change the expense to Accounts Payable. This is the ideal way of applying a down payment check to a bill. For additional insight about this, you can check out this article: Record vendor prepayments or deposits for prepaid parts or services

 

However, please be sure to reach out to an accounting consultant to ensure this method is the best suit for your business. With Intuit's Find-A-ProAdvisor site, you can search for certified professionals in proximity to your ZIP code that can discuss options more personal to your business's needs.

 

Please let me know if you need further assistance with this, I want to make sure this is taken care of. Have a great day!
