Hi there, @HarishSecPod

 

I'd be happy to provide you with the steps to record the refund through a Refund Receipt, which will maintain proper accounting records.

 

The refund will be reflected as a reduction in the customer's outstanding balance, and the accounting entries will be properly documented.

 

Here's how:
 

  1. Select + New.
  2. Choose Refund receipt or Give refund.
  3. Click the Customer ▼ dropdown, then select the customer you want to refund.
  4. Tick the Refund From ▼ dropdown, then select the bank you deposited the payment for the invoice to
  5. Add all products or services the customer returned in the Product/Service column.
  6. Make sure to fill in the date, quantity, rate, amount, sales tax, and other fields accordingly, then select Save and Close.
     

For more in-depth details on how to record a refund based on various scenarios, this will make sure your books are up-to-date, refer to this article: Record a customer refund in QuickBooks Online.

 

Also, I'll add this guide to help you when a customer overpays you in the future: Handle a customer credit or overpayment in QuickBooks Online.

 

 I'll be around if you need further assistance recording your transactions. I'm very eager to help. Take care always.
