This question must have been asked and answered, but I just can't find exactly what I need. I paid an invoice in September. In October I received a check for a partial refund. I made the Bank Deposit using A/P as the account. I created a Vendor Credit also. I made a "payment" applying the credit to the deposit. Now my vendor shows the invoice (expense), deposit, and vendor credit. The Total for the vendor has the credit/deposit both included. I also get the credit appearing as Unapplied Cash Bill Payment Expense on my P&L. What am I doing wrong?!
Good day, @christyllew!
Let's go back to the last bill payment you've created and get this fixed in no time.
When applying a credit to a deposit, you'll need to enter the amount under the CREDIT APPLIED column, not PAYMENT. This is because we need to offset the available credits for that vendor, and not to enter a new payment.
You can check the screenshot below for your visual reference.

Hello there, @christyllew.
Thanks for providing us an update about what's going on on your end. Allow me to join this conversation and give you additional insights with applying credits to deposits.
To link your deposit with the vendor credit, you'll need to create a sample bill for the vendor with a zero amount to associate the transaction.
Let me guide you how:

That will do it, @christyllew.
