Entering Batch Credit Memos

Hello - 

 

We are a nonprofit using QB Desktop Enterprise. 

 

Typically, we have a donations platform which I have to manually enter donations to specific Customers/Jobs. When I use the batch enter feature, I make sure the CM being created is going to the correct account. After I save the entries, I review the Balance Sheet to find these CM's are going to an incorrect A/R account. This just happened within the last 2 months. Maybe something changed within an update? 

 

Disclosure - it is too time consuming to enter these CM's individually. Generally, we process approximately 225 CM's like this a month. It has been as high as 300.

I understand that your nonprofit CMS can make a huge difference in the success of your organization, @ertaylor. I'll help you record them into the correct A/R account.

 

When you set up a company file, QuickBooks automatically adds accounts to your chart of accounts that fit your business. Based on the columns, we're unable to select which account the credit memos will be recorded. That's why they're posted to the default A/R account.

 

Take a look at this article to learn more about copying multiple transactions such as checks, deposits, and other transaction type: Accountant tools: Batch enter transactions.

 

If you're looking to do other tasks after making the correction, feel free to visit our website: Learn QuickBooks Desktop. They have detailed steps on handling customer sales, vendors, company data, and more.

 

Keep in touch if you need any more assistance with this, or there's something else I can do for you. I've got your back. Stay safe.
