We can record credit card payments in multiple ways, mike-bestlimousi.

 

Let's start with the Pay down a credit card option to record the transactions in QuickBooks. I'll show you how:

 

  1. Go to the + New menu.
  2. Under Money Out (Business view) or Other (Accountant view), select Pay down credit card.
  3. Select the credit card you made the payment.
  4. Enter the payment amount and the date.
  5. Select the bank account you paid for the credit card.
  6. If you made a payment with a check, select I made a payment with a check.
  7. In the Check no. field, enter the check number.
  8. Once done, click on Save and Close.

 

Another method is by creating a check. Here's how:

 

  1. From + New, select Check.
  2. In the Payee field, select the vendor's name.
  3. In the Bank Account field, select the account from which the payment will be made.
  4. Enter a Mailing address and select a Payment date.
  5. In the Check no. field, enter the number, or type the EFT number if paid electronically.
  6. Add the Category details and a payment amount.
  7. After that, click Save and Close.

 

If you make a payment after reconciling your credit card, I'd recommend browsing this article to learn how to handle this: Record your Transactions to Credit Cards.
