Is there a way to clear the rejection of a customer invoice payment thru QBO ACH, so the payment can be reprocessed?

I am trying to reprocess a payment thru QBO ACH for a customer, but it keeps showing up as immediately unable to process. I believe this is because the previous attempt was rejected as "unauthorized." Is there a way to clear this issue so the payment can be re-processed?

Yes, there is a way to clear the rejection, @sheri23. You need to check your email first, as we will send you an email for every rejected ACH payment.

 

The email includes a rejection code (R##), describes the rejection reason, and provides next steps to clear the issue. Any related fees are also included in the email.

 

If you're referring to Unauthorized Debit Entry with rejection code R05, it indicates that a business debit entry was transmitted to a member's consumer account, and the member didn't authorize the entry. What you can do is change the deposit bank account for QuickBooks Payments. Or, have your bank submit a bank letter to tell us the issue is fixed.
