Hi, looking for some help. We had the following issue regarding payments:
1. We issue multiple invoices at once and receive payment for all invoices at via one ACH transfer. Let's call the first invoice run #1 at $100 total for 5 invoices, 5 different clients. $20 each. Let's call one of those invoice A.
2. When the ACH deposit transfer came through to my checking account for invoice run #1, it came through for $100.
3. Next, I downloaded the transactions from my bank and did a multiple match in QBO for the $100 to the 5 invoices, including invoice A. All reconciled, great!
4. Then, we came around to the next invoice run, let's call this run #2. And let's say that one was for $200 for 5 invoices at $40 each.
5. Unfortunately, when we downloaded the transaction from the bank, the total amount of the ACH transfer was only $180 instead of the expected $200. So I checked with our ACH transfer service log and found that all five invoices in run #2 had been paid, but that Invoice A from invoice run 1 had been refunded (long story).
So in summary: I'm now sitting with a $180 deposit that I need to match to $200 in invoices. And I'm sitting with $20 invoice A that had already been marked as paid and closed, which I now need to remove the payment, match this -$20 to the same ACH payment group so that I can properly match all the other invoices in run #2, and then re-issue invoice A.
Help! Thanks

Hi, @bluesky99. I appreciate the detailed explanation of your concern.
I can help correctly match the $180 downloaded ACH transaction to the $200 open invoices.
Since invoice run #1 has been matched and reconciled, you can adjust the received payments for invoice run #2 and reissue invoice A. For this, receive the payments of invoice run #2 and create a bank deposit for the received payments, adding a negative line item for -$20. Here are the steps to achieve this:
First, receive the payments for the invoices of invoice run #2. I've also added a screenshot below for visual reference.
Next, you can then create a bank deposit for the received payments. I've attached a screenshot after the steps.
Once done, you can match and categorize the deposit transaction. Kindly see the image below for reference.
After you've matched your QBO record with the downloaded transaction, reissue invoice A.
Let me add these articles about running reports in QBO in case you need to run financial reports to check if the changes correctly appear in the appropriate accounts:

Hi, I'm afraid that didn't work.
I created the negative bank deposit as you noted, but it was not available in the matching screen to match with the ACH deposit.
To be clear, I am using the following steps to do the deposit to invoice match:
Transactions -> bank transactions -> click on the ACH deposit transaction -> click on "Match" radio button. This then brings up the match screen which shows all open invoices, but I cannot find the negative bank deposit to include in the match with all the other invoices in order to balance the overall transaction.
I appreciate you for clarifying your concern, @bluesky99. I'll give you some options on how to make the necessary corrections and apply the deposits, allowing you to focus on managing your business.
I understand that the initial solution provided by my colleague didn't work out, and I appreciate the action you have taken. Therefore, please proceed with deleting the negative deposit.
Did the refund for Invoice A was generated before matching the deposit on Invoice B?
If that is the case, the system will automatically apply the open credit to any open invoices, provided that the "automatically apply credit" option is enabled under the same customer.
To ensure that invoice B is matched to the $200.00 deposit, follow these steps:
Once done, undo or unmatch downloaded transactions, here's how:
This will disconnect the two transactions. The original downloaded transaction will go back to the For Review tab. Then, categorize and match your online bank transactions to the corresponding invoices.
