My deposits from my bank are showing up twice on my ledger, any suggestions?

To avoid duplicate deposits in your ledger, first double-check your bank statement, @kftormey. Let me provide you with some insights and scenarios regarding the causes of duplicate deposits in your ledger and how to manage them. 

It's a good idea to first double-check your bank statement to see if the transaction appears twice. If it does, it means your bank has processed the transaction twice, and you should contact your bank to resolve the issue. 

In QuickBooks Desktop, duplicates can occur due to connectivity issues when communicating with our systems. Additionally, if you utilize both QuickBooks Bank Feeds and Download Merchant Service Deposits, this can result in duplicate information in QuickBooks. Therefore, it’s important to choose only one option that best suits your business needs. 

You can use the Dismiss feature in QuickBooks Desktop to remove duplicate payments. Here's how to do it: 

1. Select Record Merchant Service Deposits from the Banking dropdown menu.
2. In the Add Online Payments tab, choose the duplicate payment. 
   
3. Click on Dismiss Selected Payments and just select OK when a warning message appears.
4. In the Ready to record window, you'll see the dismissed transactions before finalizing the recording.
5. Once recorded, it will display the deposit amount, excluding any dismissed transactions.

Also, you can manually delete duplicate payments in QuickBooks Desktop by following the instructions in this article: Duplicate entries when downloading merchant service deposits into QuickBooks.
