How do I add cash payments into quick books

Since you've already received the invoice payment in cash, we'll need to mark the invoice as paid in QuickBooks Self-Employed, Billthespark.

1. Click Invoices on the left menu.
2. Look for the invoice and click Mark as paid.

Then, we'll need to record the amount manually to your account:

1. Select Transaction on the left menu and click the Add transaction button.
2. Enter the transaction details (DATE, TRANSACTION, AMOUNT, and CATEGORY).
3. Click Save.

Let me know if you have more questions about paying invoice. Have a great day!

Hi thanks for your reply. But how do I add cash payment in quick books.

Hey,

When you are on the Receive Payment, you select your Cash Account or petty cash in the Deposit To field.

If you have not set up the cash account, then you do this using the Add New button, when selecting your account or when in the Chart of Accounts section

Thanks,

Hi sorry if I’m not getting it . But where do you add The cash account as I can’t find it anywhere. If I try to add in accounts all I get are bank accounts.

Is there a video tutorial 

Did you find out how to do this?

I'm in the same boat as you, the options suggested were not available...

Thanks

Hi

I am just setting up, having used xero last year. I have added the business account but is there a way of adding a cash account too as we sometimes get paid in cash and also sometimes use cash or our personal account to buy parts?

3. Click the drop-down for Detail Type and select Cash on hand.
4. Enter all other details such as the name of the account and opening balance.
5. Click Save and Close.

Let me know if you need anything else. I'll be around to help you again.

Hi

i am talking about invoices paid by cash or e transfer how do i enter that on my invoice ?

Thanks for joining the thread sneligan. I can share with you some information on how to add invoice cash payment.

In QuickBooks Self-Employed, the Invoices and Transactions page isn't linked with each other. Thus, whenever you're creating an invoice, it won't affect your Schedule C since only the data of your transactions are just the basis.

If you'd want to include the invoice payment as income, you can manually enter it into the system if you're bank account isn't connected.

To enter invoice cash payment, here's how:

1. Click Transactions in the left navigation menu.
2. Click Add Transaction button in the upper right hand.
3. Enter Date, Transaction Description, Amount, and select a category.
4. Click Save.

To give you more of an idea about this process, you can check this great resource: Manually add transactions in QuickBooks Self-Employed.

Hi I'm having the same issue with quick books self employed not quick books online,.... I have my bank account and I have a cash one set up however I want to be able to see a balance of cash on had to match up to my records, how can I do this? thanks 

Hello there, gettingannoyed1.

In QuickBooks Self-Employed, the option to see balance from cash on hand so you can match it up with your records isn't available. You can only see the income and expense and when you connect your bank, it will only show the bank balance.  

Here's what you can see if your bank account is connected in QuickBooks Self-Employed.

While this isn't yet an option, I'd be happy to share this idea to our product developers so they can consider this on our future product enhancements.
