How to record refund from vendor

Good to see your post today, Kac5208.

Let me guide you in handling vendor refunds in QuickBooks Desktop Mac.

You'll want to create a deposit to record the refund amount. Here's how:

1. Go to the Banking menu, then select Make Deposits.
2. If the Payments to Deposit window appears, select OK.
3. Fill in the necessary information
4. Select Save & Close.

Once done, you can record a Bill Credit for the returned items:

1. Go to the Vendors menu, then select Enter Bills.
2. Select the Credit radio button to account for the return of goods.
3. Enter the Vendor name.
4. Select the Items Tab.
5. Enter the returned items with the same amounts as the refund check.
6. Click Save & Close.

Then, you can link the deposit to the Bill Credit:

1. Go to the Vendors menu, then select Pay Bills.
2. Check the Deposit that matches the Vendor check amount.
3. Select Set Credits and apply the Bill Credit you created earlier then select Done.
4. Click Pay Selected Bills, then select Done.
