Is there a way to issue a store credit to a customer without taking a payment?
We want to give a customer $30 store credit without taking any kind of payment...
Is this possible?
Another example is giving a promotional gift card say for $50. i would like to be able to do this without actually "selling" a gift card...
Hi there, @SHOES_. Let me share with you some information about tracking promotional gift cards or credits in QuickBooks Desktop Point of Sale (POS).
In QuickBooks POS gift cards or credits are recorded as sales transactions when recharging and redeeming them. Here's an article that shares the process: Sell, recharge, or redeem gift cards in QuickBooks Desktop Point of Sale.
In your case, you can make a sale or enter a sales receipt with the gift amount, then add an expense item with the same amount (negative) to offset and get a zero-dollar transaction. Before that, you may seek help from an expert or a professional accountant to track the credit correctly.
For more tips about handling refunds and credits in POS, you can always check out the topics from this link: Credit or refund customer accounts receivable in QuickBooks.
If you have any other questions about tracking promotional gift cards or credits, let me know by adding a comment below. I'm more than happy to help. Have a good one!
Example

Is this possible?

Without doing a refund or exchange etc....can I put a $30 store credit in the system for the customer to use in the future?
