Join nowHello, new user here. I have to send POs to some of my vendors for ordering purposes. My understanding is that once I receive the items, I should "copy to bill" and "mark as paid" so that it will effectively close out the PO and enter the items as inventory on hand. The problem is, I have my bank and CC accounts linked digitally. QB already knows the money went out based on the credit card activity. Marking the bill as paid takes the money out a second time. Obviously this isn't ideal or correct.
How can I receive inventory in a way that doesn't cause this issue?
How do I go back and correct the dozen or so bills I have marked paid so that my QB balance matches my bank balance again?
THANK YOU!
I'm here to make sure you're QuickBooks balance matches your bank, @WNC AV.
There could have been some duplicate records of expense inside your QuickBooks account. To fix this, you can delete the bill payment then match the bills to avoid double entry.
Here's how:

Thanks for your help. Unfortunately I get stuck at step 4. I don't see "records found" anywhere. I tried "undoing" a categorized transaction but that didn't seem to open up many options. I don't see where I can match the credit card payment in the Banking section to a PO. If I go to a Vendor that I've only done one PO with, I see the PO, a Bill (that's linked), and a "Bill Payment (Check)" for the same amount in the negative. Does that help? Sorry, I feel like I'm speaking the wrong language. Let me know if some screenshots might help, happy to post them. Thanks again.
I do appreciate the steps you've performed, WNC AV.
Good job for doing the correct process when creating a purchase order and then copied it to a bill and recorded payment to close it. Since you already Undo the transaction, they'll be available in your For Review tab to be matched to the bill payment of your purchase orders. Matching transactions recorded in QuickBooks to the ones downloaded in your bank feeds can avoid duplicates.
To match them, I'll show you how:
You can do the same process to the other transactions. Once done, you can check your bank's register and review the bank balances.
I'll be attaching a few articles that will help you categorize and add bank downloaded transactions and reconcile credit card accounts.
