What will happen if you don’t know
about recording vendor payments? You must be thinking of customer support for
yourself, if it is yes then you reached to correct destination. QuickBooks
Support is always ready to bring out helping hand for you and make you satisfy
with all solutions to your query. Our QuickBooks Support is highly active for
their precious customers to make them resolvable for all issues. When you are
trying to order a part or a service from a vendor, then you must pay some
portion of the amount of price and that too before delivery. You can directly
type the prepayments or deposits by using Account Payable or Asset account. To
overcome all these situations it can be done in two ways:
Method 1: Refer Accounts Payable to Record Payments
In this method, you can precisely
write down a check to the vendor and record it to your account payable account
by decreasing the balance till the time you are ready to type the bill:
- Generate
a check for the vendor.
- In
to the Banking menu, click on to Write Checks.
- Type
the name, date, and payment amount of vendor.
- In
to the Expenses tab. In the Account column, type Accounts
Payable.
- In
the Customer: Job column, click on the drop-down menu, then select the vendor name.
- Click
on Save & Close.
- Type
the bill
Method 2: Use an asset account to keep
record of prepayment
With the help of
QuickBooks Support you
can easily write a check to the vendor and keep track of it to an Other Current
Asset (OCA) account, by increasing the balance till the time you are ready to
pay the final bill.
- To generate
an Other Current Asset (OCA) accounts to keep record of the prepayments.
- Move to the Lists menu and then click on Chart of Accounts.
- In the Chart of Accounts, double-click anywhere on
screen, and then click on New.
- In the Other Account Types drop-down menu, click on to Other Current Asset.
- Click on Continue.
- Type Prepaid Inventory as the Account Name.
- Click on Save & Close.
- Write a
check to your Vendor.
- Move to the Banking menu, and then choose Write Checks.
- Type the name, date, and payment amount of vendor.
- In the Expenses tab, In the Account column, click on the OCA account.
- Click on Save & Close.
- Type the
bill when the items arrive.
o In
the Vendors menu, choose Enter Bills.
o In
the Expenses tab, click
on to the OCA account.
o Type
the prepayment amount as a negative value.
o On
the Items tab, type
the items. The bill will equalize the balance payable after deducting the
prepayment.
o
Click on Save
& Close.
