Is there a way for me to just edit an entry? I need to just change the amount?

Posting an entry with the accurate amount to the correct account in QuickBooks (QB) is essential for maintaining its balance in your real-life bank records, Jimmy. I can share the process on how to edit a transaction that has an incorrect sum in our system.

There are several ways to edit an inaccurate amount of an entry, depending on the kind of transaction. 

If you mean that the incorrect amount was posted to your real-life bank account, please know QB will depend on what is reflected there, especially when it is linked to our software and the deposit was matched to the transaction. Considering that, editing the sum of your entry in the QB system can cause a balance discrepancy in both records.

However, if the incorrect amount is solely in your recording in QB and was not matched to the deposit in your real-life bank account, we can edit it. For an invoice transaction for which the payment was deposited, unlink the payment first, then modify the sum of the entry. Here's how:

1. In the left panel, go to My apps.
2. Pick Sales & Get Paid and choose Invoices.
   
3. Press the Status dropdown and select Deposited below the Paid option.
4. You can also modify the Date field to the correct range.
   
5. Locate the invoice that was marked as deposited and has an incorrect amount. Then, click the View/Edit beneath the Action column.
   
6. Once you are in the transaction field, move your cursor to the payment link, under the Invoice Total section, and tap it.
   
7. Zero out the Amount received and Payment field to make sure that the amount of the settlement will be removed and also be corrected. After that, Record and close.
   
8. Go back to the original entry and modify the total sum, the same as what is deposited in your real-life bank. Then, Save.
9. Once done, hover your mouse to the Receive payment tab within that invoice transaction to balance the total based on the correct deposited amount in your original bank account. Then, follow the necessary process in receiving payment.
   

Yet, if you mean an amount deposited for your vendor, zero out the bill payment and edit the total of the entry. Afterward, mark it as paid again. Feel free to follow these steps:

1. In the Bills section from the Expenses & Bills tab, choose the Paid option.
2. Locate the paid bill you want to edit the amount and click Show payments.
3. Tick the View Details.
   
4. Clear the Payment field. A prompt will show and pick Yes.
   
5. Go back to the bill transaction in the Unpaid tab, and go over it and edit the amount.
   
6. Once done changing the amount, tap the Mark as paid on the upper right corner.
   

If these transactions are not what you are looking for, you can pull up the Transaction Detail by Account,  filter it up to the correct bank account, and locate the entry that you want to edit the amount of. Or you can reply here with what specific transaction you need to modify so we assist you right away.

In every business entity, recording the correct total sum is crucial to maintain accurate financial reporting and bookkeeping. Feel free to return if you need additional help by leaving a comment below.
