I cannot find a way of creating a credit for a contractor (supplier) who has CIS deducted. NOTE: the credit note is dated in the same CIS period as the original invoice.

Hi there, PBS_117,

You're unable to select a CIS when you create a credit note. You'll want to create an expense to record the CIS payment. This way, it will show on your CIS report.

Let me show you how:

1. Click + New, then choose Expense.
2. Select a subcontractor from the supplier drop down. This tells QuickBooks that it’s a CIS transaction and will automatically select the correct labour account for you based on this subcontractors CIS rate.

I've added these articles to help you manage CIS payments in QuickBooks Online:
