Double Deposit

I made a mistake and deposited a check to the bank that my office manager had already deposited via mobile deposit.  So there is now a bank adjustment and there is nothing due to the client but in Banking it shows the deposit and the negative amount that was adjusted.  I'm not sure how to handle this from a bookkeeping perspective.

Double Deposit

It's part of life to make a mistake, @AlleyTrees. I'm here to help you fix it.

 

Since, the downloaded transaction is a duplicate of one already recorded in your books, excluding it makes sense. 

 

We can go to the Banking page and exclude the double deposit. You'll need to make sure you know the transaction to keep. If you're hesitant about it, you can refer to your accountant. Let me guide you with a process.

 

First, we'll have to undo the transaction. Here's how:

 

  1. Go to the Banking page.
  2. Under the Reviewed tab, select the payment.
  3. Click on Undo.

 

After that, the payment will go back to the For Review tab. From there, we can Exclude it.

 

Here's how to exclude it:

 

  1. From the For Review tab, select the duplicate payment.
  2. On the Batch actions.
  3. Select Exclude Selected.
  4. Then, delete it from the Excluded tab.

 

Additionally, if you accidentally exclude the wrong transaction, you can go to the Excluded tab and Undo it.
