I got vendor refund CHECK for credits issued. How do I record deposit of his check to offset credits I already entered? I DON'T USE BILL PAY.

Hi there, @Dr251.

I can certainly provide you with the steps for the correct workflow of balancing the vendor credit. You'll only need to create a bank deposit from Accounts Payable account. 

If you've already entered a vendor credit, we'll proceed with recording the vendor refund check deposit. Here's a more detailed steps:

1. On the top menu, hover over Banking and select Make Deposits.
2. Close the Payments to Deposit window if you see it to proceed with the Make Deposits window.
3. From the Deposit To field, choose the bank account where you deposited the vendor's refund check.
4. Enter the date you deposited the check.
5. From the Received From column, select the Vendor's name.
6. From the FROM ACCOUNT column, select Accounts Payable. If the original credit was applied to a different expense account, then that account should be selected.
7. Enter the amount of the deposit then click Save & Close.

By doing this steps, you'll be able to balance the vendor refund status after depositing the check from the Accounts Payable account to your bank account. You can refer to this article for more information about this process:  Record a vendor refund in QuickBooks Desktop.

Always remember to reconcile your account to ensure they match your bank statement and avoid discrepancies. It's important to review your accounts in QuickBooks to make sure they align with your actual bank especially when handling refunds.
