I rec'd a credit card payment from a client for 2 invoices on different projects. I had to accept the total amount on one invoice. How do I apply the credit to the other?

Hi there, ckennedy!

Welcome to the Community.

You'll be able to apply the credit card payment made by your client on one invoice by creating a Bank Deposit transaction. This would allow you to split the amount of the payment so you could apply it to the other invoice.

Let me show you how:

1. Go to the Plus icon.
2. Under Other, select Bank Deposit.
3. On the first row under RECEIVED FROM column, select the first project and the second project on the second row.
4. Under ACCOUNT, choose Accounts Receivable on both rows.
5. On the AMOUNT, it should be the amount of the second invoice but negative for the first row while positive on the second.
6. Click on Save and close.

You'll then receive the payment on the second invoice by applying the deposit as a credit.

Here's how:

1. On the invoice of the second project, click Make payment.
2. Under Credits, select the checkbox for deposit.
3. Click on Save and close.

You can check and verify on the project's invoice.

I've also attached a screenshot for your reference.
