I want to stop this error from happening to you, Karen. You're in the right place to look for solutions.
I have instructions here to fix the error you've received in resolving the difference in QuickBooks. This way, you can categorize the transactions seamlessly.
Let's change the invoice payment bank account to Undeposited funds. Then add the bank charge to match the amount in your bank feed. Do the following:
- Go to the Sales tab and select All sales.
- Locate and double-click the payment in the list.
- Change the Account to Undeposited funds, then click Save and close.
- Hit the +New menu and pick Bank deposit.
- Check the appropriate payment in the list.
- Under Add funds to this deposit, add the following:
- Customer name
- Bank Charges as Account. If you didn't see it, click Add New to create one.
- Payment Method
- Negative amount
7. Click Save and Close.
After that, go back to the Banking tab and re-match the transactions to verify if it's already performing well.
If the issue persists, I'd suggest excluding the invoice and manually clearing the transaction recorded in QuickBooks. Follow the steps below on how to clear them in the register:
- Go to the Accounting menu and choose Chart of Accounts.
- Click the View register link of the bank account where the transaction was added.
- From the checked columns, click the blank field until the letter C is displayed.
- Click Save and close.
Once everything is good, don't forget to reconcile them to make sure they match your bank and credit card statements.
