Deposit invoice

Let's work together to fix this issue, Benmetal.

 

In QuickBooks Online (QBO), you can add deposits to customer invoices, reducing the total amount and calculating the balance due. However, applying deposits to quote is unavailable.

 

Since the deposit box already shows in your invoice section, I can help you how to apply it.

 

To add a deposit to an invoice:

 

  1. Go to the Sales menu and select Invoices.
  2. Find the invoice you want to add a deposit, then click Edit.
  3. Enter the amount in the Deposit field.
  4. From the Deposit to drop-down arrow, select Undeposited funds.
  5. Hit Save and Close.

 

To record the deposit, you can follow the procedures in this article under Step 2Combine transactions in QuickBooks with a bank deposit.

 

After that, run the Deposit Detail report. It'll show the list of all your recorded bank deposits. You can select each transaction to view more information.

 

Here's how:

 

  1. Go to the Reports menu.
  2. In the search bar, type Deposit Detail.

 

Furthermore, visit this link to personalise your data. It'll get the most out of your financial reports: Customise report.
