Applying payments to your invoices is easy, @jkelly630.

 

To get started, please follow these steps:

  1. Click the + New button and choose Receive Payment
  2. In the Customer drop-down, select the name of the customer.
  3. Pick the Payment method drop-down, and select the account you put the payment in the Deposit to field. 
  4. From the Outstanding Transactions section, select the checkbox for the invoice your recording payment for.
  5. Enter how much money your customer paid, in the Amount received box.
  6. Hit Save and close

 

For your reference, please see this article: Record invoice payments in QuickBooks Online.

 

Then, once you are ready to reconcile your account, refer to the steps below to get started:

  1. Navigate to Settings and click Reconcile
  2. From the Account drop-down, pick the account you want to reconcile.
  3. Review the Beginning balance. Make sure the beginning balance in QuickBooks matches the one on your statement. Here's what to do if they don't match.
  4. Type the Ending balance and Ending date on your statement.
  5. If you see it, review the Last statement ending date. This is the end date of your last reconciliation. Your current bank statement should start the day after.
  6. Hit Start reconciling when you're ready to start. 

 

Here's the article that will provide more details about the process:  Reconcile an account in QuickBooks Online.

 

When the reconciliation is done, you can pull up a reconciliation report to have a summary of your beginning and ending balances and lists of cleared and uncleared transactions in QBO.
