Thanks for providing us in-depth details about linking a $500 pre-payment to an invoice, MECH Scan Solutions.
In QuickBooks Online (QBO), we handle the customer pre-payment by recording it as a retainer or deposit. This way, invoices are paid using the money from the deposits.
To record a retainer, let's create a liability account in QBO. This tracks the retainer amount you receive from your customers.
Here's how:
Once done, proceed to step 2 until Step 6 in this article to finish the process: Record a retainer or deposit.
For Step 4. Create Sales Receipt or Invoice for deposits or retainers section, just import your invoices from Saasant into QBO. Then, follow the steps in Option 2. Invoice customers for deposits or retainers section of the article provided.
By doing so, this decreases the amount in your liability account and applies the credit to your customer's invoice. This will turn the liability into an income.
