Total Income Doubled After Invoice is Split

Hi I was looking at my quarterly numbers and noticed the total income is doubled due to Invoices being 'Split' to specific projects.


Basically, I send an invoice to a Client with multiple items, but the items are for multiple on-going projects the client has, so after I receive payment and go to Record the deposit, I Split the Invoice to the respected projects but then the actual Transactional Income shows the individual line items, and then the Split Invoice in its entirety. 


I attached a screenshot which I hope helps. 

 

How do I remove the 'DEPOSIT' so it is just the Invoice Income and not both? Thank you!!

Total Income Doubled After Invoice is Split

Hi @remogul320. I'll share information about your invoice.

 

In QuickBooks Online, invoices and deposits are both money-in or income transactions. You don't have to remove the deposit, just make sure to select your Accounts Receivable account and the project name in each line item to link both entries.

 

However, I still recommend contacting your accountant for guidance in recording the payment for the split invoice. If you haven't yet, here's a link to use so you can find some to work with: QuickBooks Certified ProAdvisor.

 

When your clients have outstanding balances, you can create and send them a document showing a detailed reminder of what's coming in due. Use this link for the steps: How to Send Statements to Show Customers Sales Activity?
