Hello, community! Is there an easy way to enter a manual credit card payment? After I emailed a new vendor an invoice, they responded with their credit card information for me to enter. Thank you!

I’m glad to see you in the Community today, mkmuir-comcast-n.

Yes, you can manually enter the credit card payment in the Transactions tab. Then, categorize it from there. I’ll help and how you the steps.

1. Tap the Transactions menu on the left panel and hit the Add Transaction button in the upper-right.   
2. This process will expand a line where you can input the payment.
3. From there, fill in the fields with the right information.
4. Hit the Select a category link to open the list of Schedule C categories.
5. Then, choose the right one that best suits the entry’s description.
6. Click Save.
7. Next, go back to the Invoices page to mark the sales entry as paid.

 I’m attaching an article to help you in the future. It outlines the complete steps on how to turn the Payments feature in QBSE. The article is from another region, but the instructions still apply in the US version: Set up Payments in QuickBooks Self-Employed (application or apps).

When you categorize a transaction, QBSE matches it to a line on your Schedule C. To select the right one, click here to view the complete list of categories.
