Check I issued showing up on collections report.

Hello ssallay_90,

Welcome to Community!  I would be happy to provide some insight here!

I've tried doing it where I make a credit memo and then refund. But then on that job, it shows a negative balance. I'm really confused because on the other jobs that I refunded, I just put in a refund check and it's fine. Why is it only this check I sent out that's showing up on my collections report?

Hi ssallay_90,

It sounds like you may have created a duplication, when entering a credit memo and a refund for your customer.  To balance the customer account, you can delete one of the items.  However, I encourage you to contact our Customer Care team at 1-833-317-2226, Mon-Fri: 9am-8pm ET.  They'll be able to connect with you virtually, and ensure a positive outcome on your books.

Feel free to let us know if this is resolved, as it will assist other Community members, who may be facing the same concern.

I tried it by just doing a refund as well and that's where it keeps showing up on my collections report. I'll try giving customer service a call. Thanks for trying to help.
