I appreciate you asking about returned customer payment, spropshop. I know some possible factors of why this happened, and I'm ready to share them with you today.
Usually, bank transfer payments can fail because of incorrect bank information or insufficient funds. Please have your customer review the bank details and make sure to have enough funds to process payment successfully.
If you're ready to record the bounced transaction, you may need to track the following:
Show the amount of the customer's check that was deducted from your bank balance.
Show the bank charged you a fee.
Mark the customer's invoice they were supposed to pay as "open" and unpaid.
Charge your customer a fee for the inconvenience (this is up to you).
Send a statement to tell the customer what they owe you for the original invoice and any fees.
For accurate recording, you have various ways to handle this scenario. You can either use an expense or journal entry. Use the strategy that serves you best from these resources:
