Hi there, mrsstoll.
I'm here to help record a cash back check you received from a vendor in QuickBooks Desktop (QBDT).
If you receive a cash back or a refunded amount for purchases made on your credit card, you can record it by entering a credit card credit. Here's how:
- In QBDT, go to the Banking menu, then select Enter Credit Card Charges.
- From the Credit Card drop-down, choose the credit card account.
- Tick the Refund/Credit radio button.
- Choose the appropriate Vendor name and enter the Date, Ref No, and Amount.
- Enter an appropriate memo to describe the transaction.
- If you returned Items, click the Item tab and enter the Items and Amounts from the refund.
- If the refund does not have Items, select the Expenses tab, select the appropriate Accounts, and enter the Amount.
- Hit Save & Close.
