Hello helenswoodencraf,
We can correct how the down payments were recorded. However, we'll need to do it one transactions at time.
- Open the invoice and take note of the down payment details.
- Click Save and close.
- Select Yes to confirm the action.
Then, you can record the down payments through Receive payments or Bank deposits.
- Click the + New button and select Receive payment.
- Select the Customer and enter the Payment date.
- Select the bank account in the Deposit to field.
- Mark the invoice that needs to be partially paid.
- Enter the amount in the Amount received field.
- Click Save and close.
If you select Bank deposit, here's how to affect it to the customer's account:
- Click the + New button and select Bank deposit.
- Select the bank account in the Account field and enter the Date.
- Go to the Add funds to this deposit section.
- Select the customer name in the RECEIVED FROM column.
- Select Accounts Receivable in the ACCOUNT column.
- Enter the down payment in the AMOUNT column.
- Click Save and close.
Then, use the bank deposit as invoice payment. You can use these links for more information:
You might also ask your accountant to see if they have a way to correct these details in bulk. They know what's best for you and your books.
Keep us posted if you have additional questions.
