Welcome to the Community, smbrooks.
You've reached the right place for assistance. I want to make sure you're able to record this payment in your QuickBooks Desktop account.
There are a few different reasons as to why you would be seeing that error message. For example, the invoice is already partially or fully paid in QuickBooks. Here's how to get that fixed:
1. Find the invoice for the payment that generates the error.
2. Void or unapply any payments against the invoice so the full balance is due.
3. Close and re-open Merchant Service Deposits.
4. The payment will now record.
The following article provides additional info and troubleshooting steps to get this issue resolved: Error in Merchant Deposits "A payment you are trying to download can not be matched or recorded"
Please give this a try and let me know how things look afterward. I'll be here if you have any other questions.

Hello Jack. It looks like your post is meant for Smbrook. While we await his reply, I'd like to share some common causes and solutions we can tackle together.
If you're experiencing the same issue with Smbrook and see the error message "Please record your merchant payments manually," this usually occurs when the invoice is either partially or fully paid in QuickBooks.
Additionally, this error may show if you attempt to modify an invoice dated on or before the closing date, if there's an incorrect payment method in QuickBooks, or if there are issues related to a "Check" payment method or the Accounts Receivable account.
If your invoice is partially or fully paid, I recommend following my colleague MorganB's suggestions for resolving that specific scenario.
If the invoice you're trying to modify is on or before the closing date, here's how we can fix it:
Once you've completed these steps, head back to Preferences. Then, update the closing date to the correct one. Afterward, save your changes.
If your situation matches the other reasons I mentioned above, I recommend checking out this article: Error in Merchant Deposits "A payment you are trying to download can not be matched or recorded".
Furthermore, you can send your customer a statement that provides comprehensive details of their associated invoices, payments, and outstanding balances for future reference.
Your success in managing invoices is essential for your business. If you have more questions or concerns, let's tackle them together. I want to ensure you have the support necessary to help you move forward.
