VENDOR CREDITS and OPEN PAYABLES

INSERT PAYABLE CREDITS

Make a credit for a Vendor (a claim) by inserting a payable with a negative amount,

Menus > Checks/Payables
Checkbook > Payable
Insert: enter a negative dollar amount.

APPLY PAYABLE CREDITS TO OPEN BILLS

A Payable credit will show as a payable with a negative amount due. This procedure will apply that credit to an open payable bill.

  1. Menus > Vendors, find Vendor
  2. Click Pay Bills One
  3. Apply a negative amount to the credit and a positive amount to an open Bill.  Enter any check number; it will not be used.
  4. Click OK.  Payables will be processed.

This process can also be done using Pay Bills 2, if the credit and the bill are for exactly the same amount.
Select both bills.
Actions > Pay Bills.
This will apply the credit without inserting a check.
