Hi thulme,
Welcome to Community! It's great to hear that you've received a tip from your customer for a job well done. QuickBooks Desktop is a dynamic program that allows you to enter transactions with peace of mind. I'll be happy to steer you in the right direction for accomplishing your QuickBooks goals!
In this type of situation, I recommend reaching out to your accountant for their expertise and the best course of action. This will ensure the transaction hits the appropriate accounts for a positive outcome. If you don't have an accountant, we can help you locate a ProAdvisor in your local area.
Please don't hesitate to reach back out with other questions. We'd be glad to assist!
