Hello,

 

We made a tax payment for the BC PST, and we received a refund cheque. When I go to the filed return in QBO, and enter the refund amount is the 'Record Refund' option, it grays out the #3 checkmark box in the Paid section. Is there a way to process this properly so that it appears properly as Paid? Please see image.

 

Thanks!
