Credit entries that I'm waiting for???

May 17, 2010 3 Replies

Hi.



Can anyone help



My Supplier has supplied a item for £300.00 and delivered direct to a customer **Entry in Quickbooks** for £300.00 (No suppliers invoice # yet")


7 days later I have had the Bill in for this and entered the Suppliers Invoice # and ticked the "Bill received" box. Ready for payment. So far so good


3 days later the client says the item is faulty and and requires that the item is exchanged.



The Supplier sends a replacement item (under a new invoice # to me) and collects the faulty one for credit, and eventually a credit note



My Questions are:



I need to make 2 entries to show.


  1. The Suppliers 2nd Invoice. I enter this with the invoice # in the Memo Field but with the "Bill Received" not ticked. So that it is not inadvertantly paid.


  1. The Credit Note that I'm expecting from the Suppliers for the 2nd Invoice. Because although I have not received the Credit Note yet. I need to know that it is expected, and in Quickbooks theere is not an equivalent of "Bill Received" on the Credit Side to untick while I am waiting for the Supplier to agree the credit



Thanks


I enter the credit memo and put a note in the file that indicates that a credit memo is pending. I instruct my clients to never claim a credit memo without proper documentation from the supplier. I've seen cases where the amount of the credit did not match what they were expecting. Taking it ahead of time can cause problems reconciliation problems.

Hi Thanks for the reply "I enter the credit memo" Where on my SUPPLIERS side is there a credit memo??

Enter a credit memo for the vendor that will issue the credit.
