Addressing the issue of old payments showing up as credits is essential for maintaining accurate financial records in QuickBooks Desktop, Twiggy11. I'm here to assist you and make sure everything is in place.
Old payments may show up as credits if they were mistakenly unapplied. To fix this, check the bills with the same check date and reapply the payment to those bills. This will help close them out and eliminate the incorrect credits.
If this isn't the case, you can perform the verify rebuild tool to help you find any common issues within your company.
Here's how:
- On the top menu, click File.
- Choose Utilities.
- Select Verify Data.
- Click OK when you see the message: QuickBooks detected no problem with your data.
- If Verify finds an issue with your data, you'll be prompted to Rebuild Now or View Errors.
- Click Close or View Errors and take note of the specific error message.
