Credit note from supplier

I have a credit note from a supplier for an invoice i have already paid for.

 

For example I had an invoice from a supplier on 06/11/2023 and paid it at the end of the month. I have paid this off and cleared it down with the amount paid to the supplier matching my bank account.

 

Forward to Dec and a credit note has come through for a part of this invoice. Its been taken into account on the suppliers statement. For example the latest statement is for £1000.00 but the invoices come to £1100 with the £100 credit note on there!? So my balance to match the bank statement is £1000 but i have this credit note to account for!? How do i do this? 

 

Thanks

Hello there, Emilytoddy!

 

Thanks for sharing your concern about recording a credit note from a supplier in QuickBooks Online (QBO). I can offer some information to guide you in accomplishing this.

 

Here's how:

 

  1. Click + New.
  2. Choose Supplier credit.
  3. In the Supplier drop-down menu, select your supplier.
  4. Depending on how you record purchases with this supplier, enter the Category details or Item details. This can be the category, product, or service you’re getting credit for.
  5. Click Save and Close.

 

If you want to gain a better understanding of this process, please refer to the following article: Enter supplier credits and refunds in QuickBooks Online.
