Question

Received Underpayment

We received an underpayment from one of our customers who was doing an international money transfer to us and put the transaction charges on us, hence the underpayment.

 

I already had made a invoice for this customer on quickbooks with the original (not underpaid) amount.

My question is, since the transaction charges is an expense for us, should I enter it as a bill ? Can I LINK the transaction charges entered as an expense with the underpaid invoice ? Is there any way to do this.

 

If not, what are the correct steps to be followed in this case ?

I'll share a way on how you can resolve the underpayment, arshia200.

 

Let's open the invoice and make a payment by following these steps:

 

  1. Go to Customers > Customer Center.
  2. Select the customer's name and open the invoice.
  3. From the Main menu, click the Receive Payments button.
  4. In the Receive Payments window, select the invoice you want to pay.
  5. Enter the underpaid amount in the Payment column. 
  6. Choose the option that applies under the UNDERPAYMENT section.
  7. Hit Save & close twice.

Please see this sample screenshot for a visual reference:

This was so simple in the desktop version.  Do you know how to do this in QB Online? I can't figure it out and no one seems to know when I call them for help.

 

Thank you!
