How do I record the payments I receive from my vendors?
If you’ve made an excess/advance payment to a vendor and the vendor refunds a part or the entire excess/advance payment, you can record the refund under Payments Made. To record an excess/advance payment:
- Go to Purchases on the left sidebar.
- Select Payments Made.
- Select an excess/advance payment.
- Click the More button in the top top right corner.
- Click Refund.
- Enter the Amount, select the Refunded On date, and select the To Account.
- Click Save.
The refund will now be recorded under Payments Made.
If you return goods or services to a vendor, or if you cancel an order, the vendor will provide a refund for your purchase. In Zoho Books, you can record the refund as vendor credits, which you can use for future transactions with the vendor. However, if you’ve requested a refund and the vendor has issued it, you can record it in Zoho Books under vendor credits. Here’s how:
- Go to Purchases on the left sidebar.
- Select Vendor Credits.
- Select a vendor credit.
- Click the More button in the top right corner.
- Click Refund.
- Select the Refunded On date, enter the Amount, and select the To Account.
- Click Save.
The refund will now be recorded under Vendor Credits.
