Modify Product/Service on Sales Receipt

I need to modify the product/service associated with a payment link/Sales Receipt transaction that has already occurred and for all future transactions. When I try to do this for a past Sales Receipt transaction, I'm told the deposit has already processed and I cannot edit the transaction but I may be able to if I delete the associated deposit. I did so but I'm still unable to edit the Sales Receipt because "This bank transaction has already been processed through your merchant account, so you can't change the customer, amount, payment method or bank information. However, if the transaction hasn't already settled, you can refund the payment and save the transaction with different information."

 

Obviously, I don't want to refund the transaction just to modify the GL account and product/service tracking.

 

Separately, I'm not sure how to modify the product/service and GL account for future transactions.

Modify Product/Service on Sales Receipt

Hi there, @luvlogistics. I understand that you need to change the product and service link associated with a payment link in QuickBooks Online (QBO).  Allow me to share insights into modifying a past Sales Receipt transaction and making changes for future transactions.

 

Currently, the option to directly change the product and service is unavailable. However, if you wish to proceed with providing the correct product and service to your customer, we recommend processing a refund for the original transaction. Once the refund is completed, you can create a new sales receipt with the accurate product and service information.

 

Here's more information on how to set up product and service items you buy and sell: Add product and service items to QuickBooks Online

 

I'm also adding these articles as your reference in tracking your inventory and financial reports:

Thank you for your response. However, as mentioned in my original post, refunding the customer is not an option as we could not count on them to make good on the payment a second time. It doesn't make sense to have to refund a customer to change an accounting entry.

I understand the importance of modifying the sales receipt, luvlogistics.

 

As of now, this option is unavailable in QuickBooks Online. I'd suggest reaching out to our QuickBooks Payments Team to check if they have an option to change the items. They can securely access your account and provide accurate steps.
