Welcome to Community, zengfangping.

 

I'm here to make sure you'll be able to create the credit in QuickBooks Desktop.


You can create a bank deposit affecting the account payable to the vendor. I'll show you how:

 

 

  1. Select Make Deposits from the Banking menu.
  2. In the Payments to Deposit window appears, select OK.
  3. Select the Received from the drop-down in the Make Deposits window and choose the vendor who sent you the refund.
  4.  Choose the appropriate Accounts Payable from the From Account drop-down menu.
  5. Enter the amount of the Vendor check in the Amount column.
  6. (Optional) Enter a memo, check number, payment method, and class.
  7. Select Save & Close.
     

Once done, follow the same steps to link the deposit to the Bill Credit:

 

  1. Click on Vendors at the top menu bar.
  2. Select on Pay Bills.
  3. Choose the bill that you wish to be paid.
  4. Click the Set Credits button at the bottom to apply for credits.
  5. Once done, click on Pay Selected Bills.

Additionally, I'm attaching this link that you can utilize for future reference. This contains details on how to ensure your accounts are well organized: Reconcile an account in QuickBooks Desktop.

 

Be sure to let me know if you have any other questions about paying bills. I got you covered with any QuickBooks concern. Thanks for coming to the Community, wishing you continued success.
