I have 2 deposits that were duplicated and I need to delete these duplications but I don't know how to do it.  Can someone tell me how to delete these deposits?  When I click on record deposits the 2 deposits show up and when I click on them there is no way to delete the deposit.  I have deleted them from the check register but they still show up to record deposits and I have the corrected deposits in but these need to be deleted.  Can someone tell me how to delete these duplicated deposits?

I'll make sure that you can rid of the duplicates, missymarykay55.

 

Normally, the transactions posted to the Undeposited Funds account will show up when you record bank deposits. These are the payments you'll have to combine into a single record so QuickBooks matches your bank records.

 

Since these are duplicate entries, you can open the Undeposited Funds account in your Chart of Accounts. Then, delete the transactions from there. Here's how:

 

  1. Go to the Lists menu.
  2. Choose Chart of Accounts.
  3. Locate and then double-click the Undeposited Funds account to open it.
  4. Find and then right-click the duplicate transaction.
  5. Choose Delete Payment or Delete Deposit.
  6. Select OK to confirm the changes.

However, if they're still showing in the Payments to Deposit window, I'd recommend running the Verify and Rebuild utilities. It could be that there's a data integrity issue in your company file causing this unusual behavior.
