Hi there, sh2295.

 

Thanks for the reply. Let me share some details about prepayment.

 

If you want to partially pay the bill using the available credits, make sure that the PAYMENT field is zero. The TOTAL AMOUNT should equal the credit applied. This will leave the bill open since it still has a remaining balance.Capture.PNG

Let's work on how we can apply the prepayments to the bill, sh2295.

 

When applying prepayments or credits, you just need to make sure that the AMOUNT PAID in the Bill Payment page is zero (0.00). This means that you are only applying the available credit or payments to the bill.

  1. Open the affected bill.
  2. Click Mark as paid in the Bill page and it will route you to the Bill Payment page.
  3. In the Bill Payment page, you'll see the Outstanding Transactions and the Credits.
  4. Mark the bill you want to pay partially and mark the credit that you want to apply.
  5. Make sure the PAYMENT amount matches the credit that you want to apply.
  6. Make sure the AMOUNT PAID in the upper-right corner is zero.
  7. Click Save and close.

Now, let's correct the bills that are in question. We can delete the bill payment check that links the prepayment and the bill. Here's how:

  1. Open the bill.
  2. Click the 1 payment made (amount) hyperlink.
  3. Click the date on the hyperlink and it will route you to the Bill Payment page.
  4. Click More at the bottom and select Delete.
  5. Select Yes to confirm the action.

From there, we can open the bill again and follow the Steps 1-7 that I've mentioned earlier. You can use this link for reference: Enter bills and record bill payments in QuickBooks Online.
