Question regarding split transactions

Cleaning up older invoices and basically a lump sum was deposited that included revenue from 5 different transactions.

Before this lump sum was deposited into the business account 300 of it was spent elsewhere leaving 1.5 invoices unaccounted for.

How do I pay those invoices if the money was already spent elsewhere?

Question regarding split transactions

Hello, @dreischip. I'd be delighted to assist you in handling invoices in QuickBooks Online. 

 

You can opt to void those invoices if you want to remove the amount that has already been spent. When voided, we assure you that you’ll still have a record of this transaction that won’t affect any of your account balances or reports. 

 

Once you’ve decided to void your invoices, here’s how you can do it: 

 

  1. From the Sales menu, go to Invoices
  2. Choose the invoice you’ll want to void. 
  3. In the Action column, select the drop-down icon. 
  4. Click View/Edit to open the transaction and click More in the footer. 
  5. Then select Void then click Yes to confirm.

If the invoice you’ve spent won’t be paid, you can write them off and record them as a bad debt

 

However, I encourage you to consult your accountant about the best process to handle these amounts.
