Hello. We have a customer who paid an invoice back in January via ACH. They have changed their mind and requested their money back this month. The owner of our company has wired the money back to the customer. It doesn't seem that I should create a credit memo because we are not issuing this customer a credit. Is that a correct assumption? And we've already made the payment back to the customer - the wire transfer is showing now in our bank account and is ready to be categorized. How do I account for all this in QuickBooks Online? Thank you for your help!

I ended up creating a refund receipt and matched it to the refund in our bank account. That seemed to work.
Thanks for reaching out to the Community, kellyr2.
You can enter a credit memo for your customer to record their refund in QuickBooks.
Here's how:
In regard to categorizing the wire transfer transaction, you can do so from your Banking screen:
From the For review screen, you'll have four methods for categorizing your transaction. You can match it with an existing one, confirm paired bank transfers, add a new transaction, or view and review multiple matches.
If you're unsure of which category you should be using to categorize the transaction, you'll want to work with an accounting professional. If you're in need of one, there's an awesome tool on our website called Find a ProAdvisor. All ProAdvisors listed there are QuickBooks-certified and able to provide helpful insights for driving your business's success.
I'll be here to help if there's any questions. Have a great day!
