Question

Original Amount and Amount Paid Are Different

When I run a transaction report by class, various invoices will show a different amount paid than the original amount, except the whole invoice was paid. How do I correct this?

 

Example: Our February health insurance bill was $8,469.62 total. We charged $2,065.64 to Class A.  We paid total the bill on April 11th. When I run my report, it shows the bill twice, with $2,065.64 under Original Amount, but under Paid Amount, it shows $245.81 and $9.77.

 

I don't understand why, because the bill was paid in full with a single check. It wasn't partially paid. This happens typically with our health and life insurance bills, but also other vendors. The report is ran on a cash basis.

I can see you need to view your financial reporting with accurate amounts showing, @Grant11_2. Let me share report information in QuickBooks Desktop.

 

May I know what specific reports you tried to pull up? It will help me identify if this is an issue within your company.

 

Please know that all reports shows different total amount. We recommend running the Customer Balance Detail which will allow you to view all the payment, invoices and all the outstanding balances. 

 

Furthermore, we can also pull up a Transaction List by Customer report that can help you view all the customer transactions and expenses. 

 

If you need to customize your financial data, see this article for your guide: Customize reports in QuickBooks Desktop.
