Bank Deposits and Undeposited Funds

Good Morning,

 

I am looking for guidance surrounding linked Bank Deposits and undeposited funds. I use a POS named Rain POS. They integrate with QBO, I am unable to change any of the mapping that they are sending into my books.

 

When a sale is made here is the entry, this also creates a Sales Receipt in QBO.

 

Undeposited Funds xx.xx

   Merchandise Sales xx.xx

   Sales Tax  xx.xx

 

When the bank deposit uploads into the account automatically, the entries, by default, have an action of Transfer. I don't use this because I am not transferring between banking accounts. When I try to Match the only thing that pulls up are Invoices, which doesn't work. If I was to categorize the sale to Sales of Product Income that doesn't touch Undeposited Funds. I am stuck at what I need to do.

 

Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Welcome to the Community space, casual.

 

I am here to share some insights about your bank deposits and undeposited funds in QuickBooks Online (QBO).

 

First, since you mentioned that you can't change the mapping of your accounts, I suggest contacting your POS provider to correct the mapping.

 

Also, once the sales receipt was auto-created, you need to make sure that it was posted in the undeposited funds to create a bank deposit to move the funds from Undeposited funds to the correct bank account. After that, you can match the downloaded deposit and the one you created.

 

Furthermore, I am adding this helpful article as your reference in matching your online bank transactions in QuickBooks Online: Match online bank transactions in QuickBooks Online.

 

Please don't hesitate to return to this post if you have other concerns about bank deposits and undeposited funds in QuickBooks Online. I'll be here to lend a hand. Have a good one!

Thank you so much for response. Yeah the first step that I did was contact the POS and see if I could change the mapping and they said no. So I'm stuck with mapping that I have right now.

 

It sounds to me like what I need to do is manually create a bank deposit to match to the undeposited funds. Is that correct?
