How would purchases returns on credit purchases from credit supplier be recorded?

Hello there, redrosekka.

Let me help you record the return purchases from your supplier. 

First, we will need to create a vendor credit.  Afterward, deposit the return amount that you've got from the supplier as an account payable. To guide you further, you can follow the steps below. Here's how:

1. Click the +New button.
2. Under the Vendor column, select Vendor credit.
3. Select your supplier name by clicking the Vendor drop-down arrow.
4. Enter the Category details or Item details depending on how you record purchases with this vendor.
5. Then, I would suggest reviewing every information that we have entered to make sure that everything is right such as the amount.

Then, here are the steps on how to deposit it:

1. Same as the first step above, go to the +New button.
2. Select Bank Deposit under the Other column.
3. In the Account drop-down menu, select the account where you got the refund.
4. In the Add funds to this deposit section, enter the vendor's name, select account payable and amount of it.
5. Once ready, you're good to save it by clicking the Save and Close button.

When we do this one, it also helps us to record the cash flow within your book.

Get back to me anytime if you have a follow-up or other questions about recording transactions in QuickBooks Online. Stay safe!
