Square refund exceeds- pulls from bank account- how to apply?

I appreciate you laying out the details of your concern and providing an additional screenshot to this post, @CaroD213. I'd be delighted to guide you in sorting out this query with Square refunds.

For this matter, we can record a Journal Entry for those amounts pulled from your bank. Thus, you'll match those taxes and have them refunded to your bank. Here's how:

1. Go to the Company menu and select Make General Journal Entries.
2. Fill out the fields to create your journal entry.
3. Please ensure your debits equal your credits when you’re done.
4. Click Save or Save & Close when done.

Moreover, please know that this process can be tricky. It requires assistance from your accountant to ensure the accuracy of your accounts. This way, they'll be able to guide you on the following steps to ensure that your books are accurate and to avoid messing up the data.

In case you're not affiliated with one, you can utilize our Find an Accountant tool to look for one in your area.

I tried a General Journal entry with :

AR

Bank- checking

Sales Tax Payable

Merchant Fees

I do a Square as a customer invoice for the month, but I am not getting it to apply the correct amount of credit to the customer, Square.
