Some of my deposits show up as a credit and a debit therefore cancelling each other out. Why is this happening and how do I fix the problem

Actually, the problem still occurs even if I enter the deposit manually.

 

My bank account is not increasing because the deposit that I am making is entering as a debit and credit.

I know this advice is 3 years old, but it just helped me correct the same exact problem as the original post. My deposit was also showing as a payment and I realized that I selected our Operating Account (an expense account) under "Account" when I should have selected "Unapplied Cash Payment".  THANK YOU!

I am having this same problem, and the solution that is offered makes no sense to me.  I have my accounts automatically updated from my bank. when I transfer money from my trust account to my checking account,  the payment shows up in my "for review" of Quickbooks.  I confirm the payment.  But then Quickbooks (NOT THE BANK) sets up both a payment and a deposit into my trust account, canceling each other out and thereby leaving an invalid balance on my Quickbooks trust account.  When I delete the invalid "deposit", QB deletes the "payment" from the register as well. As I read your "solution", the solution involves my "excluding" all these transfers, and re-entering them manually, which kind of defeats the purpose of having my Quickbooks automatically updated by my bank.

Hi, @ejinayoshi.

 

Let me help you correct the records this way, we can ensure that only one transaction appears in the trust account.

 

let's start by undoing the transactions in both your checking and trust accounts. To begin, we'll address the trust account transaction and record it as a bank transfer to your checking account. 

 

Here's what you need to do:

  1. Select the transaction you want to work with. And a new option will pop up.
  2. Click on Record as transfer and ensure that you select your "Trust account" under the Transferred to section.
  3. Click on Add to complete the process.

 

 

When you follow these steps, the system will automatically match the checking account transaction and trust account. As a result, you will only see one transaction in the checking account register. 

 

 

We'll also add these articles for future use:
