Overpayment to Bank Statement

I am working on entering old bank statements manually into Quickbooks. I have a company credit card that I do not have linked into my bank feeds that I am entering previous transactions for. My issue is that when these statements where paid my coworker would pay the whole balance due instead of just what was owed on the statement. Now my question is, can I enter every item on the statement and then make out a "check" to pay it off or would I need to find out exactly which items where paid at one time and put those all together under one payment. We have a separate checking account which I use to pay this credit card, this checking account is linked into my bank feeds. If I enter only the amount of each statement instead of the paid amount will that throw me off while reconciling?

Hello there, York Signs.

 

I'm here to discuss on how to handle overpayment to a Bank Statement.

 

You can enter every item on the statement for the credit card account. As to how it was paid, you'll have to record how it shows on the bank statement. You can enter the entire paid amount so it will not show as off in the reconciliation.

Overpayment to Bank Statement

So you're saying that as long as I enter every item on the statement and the correct payment amounts it will all work out in the reconciliation?
