need to speak to a rep about removing a transaction

If the direct deposit bounced due to insufficient funds, you’ll need to manually adjust the customer’s balance in QuickBooks. First, check if the transaction was recorded in Undeposited Funds or Bank Deposits, so you can create a journal entry to reverse it.

 

Alternatively, you can record a bounced check under Receive Payments, which will automatically update the balance. If the deposit is still showing in your bank feed, you may need to match or exclude it.

 

Hope this helps!

need to speak to a rep about removing a transaction

Managing a direct deposit with limited funds can be challenging, but it can be effectively handled by following the proper procedures in QuickBooks Online, @newenglanders4. It's essential to accurately record any adjustments in your records to maintain the integrity of your financial reporting.

 

Elijah is right. You can manually adjust the customer's balance and consider options such as creating a journal entry or recording a bounced check under Receive Payments. Additionally, it's crucial to match or exclude the deposit in the bank feed if it is still visible.
