Record bounced check feature not working

I'd gladly help you record your returned ACH payment using the Record Bounced Check option, hfrantz.

 

To begin with, it is important to note that the Record Bounced Check icon remains available and can still be used in QuickBooks Desktop. You'll need to change the payment method to Check to make this option available when recording your returned ACH payment. Let me guide you through the process.

 

In this sample, I recorded the payment using the Cash method. Now, let's change this to Check.

Here's how:

  1. Go to Customers, then click Customer Center.

  6. Select Yes if you're prompted to record the changes made.

Now, let's proceed in recording the bounced check.

 

  1. Double-click again the Payment.

  3. Click the Record Bounced Check icon.
