I received a check from a vendor to settled a vendor credit. I deposited the check. I cannot mark the vendor credit paid.

I can provide the steps on how to mark the vendor credit as paid, usereddiescollision.

 

You need to pick Accounts Payable for the account when creating a bank deposit. It's the best way to link the deposit to the credit.

 

See the attached screenshot below for your visual guide.

Once there's an open bill for the vendor, you can link the deposit and the credit to it as payment. Let me show you how:

 

  1. Go to the vendor's Transaction List tab.
  2. Locate the bill, then click Make payment.

  3. Mark the deposit, bill, and credit.

  4. Click Save and close to record the bill payment.

If you got credit on a future purchase, you should enter a credit instead.

 

How you enter the refund depends on how you record your purchases. Choose the section below that applies to you. If you’re not sure, ask your accountant. Or, we can help you find an accountant.

 

Stay in touch with me if there's anything else you need with handling vendor transactions. Just leave a comment below, and I'll get back to provide additional information.
