We have a low volume Shopify store using the Stripe payment gateway. We process store orders (monthly) in QB Desktop as follows:
This month, a paid but unshipped large order from several months ago was refunded from within Shopify/Stripe, and another unrelated small order was received. For example:
We entered the new order invoice as normal, then created a Credit Memo for the refunded order, and chose to refund to back to “Visa”, and left the process payments box unchecked. However this makes the total to deposit a negative, which cannot be saved in QB.
Question 1 – should we have wrote a check instead, for $100 minus the $3 adjustment, then entered a deposit for the new order only?
Question 2 – if writing a check for refund, is it appropriate to use the Stripe Fees account, for $97 out to customer?
Question 3 – unsure how to remove the unprocessed Visa refund. Will voiding the CM clear it out?
Thanks!
Update: I was able to find and delete the Visa refund from the Accounts Receivable register. Then I refunded via check (not printed), and decided to handle this situation with two separate entries that we'll add together at time of reconciling the bank account. One being the refund amount (-100), the other being a deposit of new order, new order fee, and refund adjustment (52).
