Hi there, @johnfloyd12.
I appreciate you get back to this thread and provide more details about your concern today. I'd be happy to help walk you through recording the customer's payment and the amount deposited to the bank.
First, you need to record the invoice payment ($3000) in order to reflect this amount in QuickBooks against the invoice. Let me guide you how:
Then, create expenses to show the subcontractors and vendor payments.
Here's how:
Follow the same steps for each contractor. Finally, make a deposit to show that only $1,600.00 was deposited into the bank.
Here's how:
That should do it. I've attached some articles below for additional reference, as well as the QuickBooks Blog to check the updates about the product and latest features added in QBO.
That should take care of it. I believe that you'll have the invoice payment applied to the invoice and deposit the correct amount to the bank by following these steps.
Keep me posted how it goes by leaving a reply below. I'll be happy to help you out if you have any additional questions about the process. Wishing you and your business success.
use make deposits
line one, the income account and the full amount
line two, the contractor expense account and his amount as a negative number
I have a twist to this situation: the cash I received was partial payment for a job that was part of an invoice. How do I record this cash so that the invoice is recorded as paid in full, and the two subcontractors are recorded as being paid. Thanks!
Here is a twist to this scenario: the cash I received was partial payment of an invoice. But since part of the cash was given to the two subcontractors, only part of the cash was deposited in the bank. How do I reflect the invoice as paid in full?
Thanks for the additional details of your concern, johnfloyd12.
Allow me to join this conversation to help record these transactions in QuickBooks Online.
Just a reminder, an invoice will only show as fully paid once you applied a full payment amount. It will show as partially paid if the payment is lesser than the invoice amount.
As for the deposit, you'll want to use Accounts Receivable and add the customer's name on line 1 to make sure it will show in the customer transaction list. Once done, use the Receive Payment feature and apply the deposit as a credit.
That should get you on the right track. If you have other questions, I would be happy to answer them. Just post it here as a comment and I'll take a look at it. Enjoy your week.
Since I am new at this (Quickbooks and Accounting!), let me lay out the actual situation. I would greatly benefit from step by step instructions please:
1. Customer invoice total: $6,597.65
2. Deposit received: ($1,153.29)
3. Partial payment received: ($2,444.36)
4. Balance due: $3.000.00
-----------------------------------------------------------
5. Customer paid balance in cash: ($3,000.00)
6. Out of the cash, three subcontractors and one vendor were paid for a total of $1,400.00:
6a. Sub1: $400.00
6b. Sub2: $300.00
6c. Sub3: 125.00
6d. Vend1: 550.00
6e. Owner kept $25.00 cash for misc. expenses
7. Therefore, only $1,600.00 of the $3,000.00 was deposited into the bank
How do I account for all of this and reflect the $3,000 paid on the customer's invoice as well as the payments to the sub's & misc. expense?
Thanks!!!

Hi there, hnepomuceno001.
You're most welcome for the response! I'm glad to hear that you found it helpful.
Please know that the Community has your back if you need assistance. Have a great rest of your week.
Hello, how do I record the transaction if the entire cash payment was either used for expenses on other customers, or shop expenses or if the owner kept the cash?
I can help you in recording this transaction, @NV Metal Works Company.
You can write a check or record an expense to record the expense using your business account. Then, record a bank deposit when you reimburse the company.
To write a check or add an expense:
To record a bank deposit:
See this article for detailed guidance: Pay for personal expenses from a business credit card or bank account.
You can also review this link to know the difference between expense or check.
I’ll be around to help if there’s anything else you need in recording your expenses. Just leave a reply below, and I’ll take it from here. Have a lovely day!
