Have been using Quickbooks since 04 and it has worked great for me. My cpa said I really learned it fast. Only problem I can't seem to solve is this....
I have an unpaid invoice from last year that my cpa wrote off as a bad dept. I don't know how to delete it from Quickbooks. It shows up in my aging summory and it's starting to annoy me. Cpa wants 85.00 per hour to remotely connect to me ( RAZ ) to remedy the problem. NOT!!
Anyone here able to help? Thanks

My quickbooks has a journel entry type of thingy to where i can make adjustments to stupid mistakes that i make when i feel like being a stupid person, like that time i mistook a bad waterheater that I replaced, to only find out after the fact that it was a slab leak that was causing the water not to heat. Oops. TO be young.

Why cant you go to the invoice , go to edit menu and delete?

ROCKSTARPLUMBER

quickstopbooks is bad about limiting the amount of changes you can make to an invoice. *******s.

From what I know about qb contractors addition 2004, that will not work. It still is in the aging summary

It will not delete the invoice if it is an unpaid invoice. Been there, tried that.

Write off Bad Debt


From the receive payments window, select the invoice to be written off, click on discount. From the discount window enter the amount to be written off and select "bad debt expense" as the account. This write-off method will not adjust the liability included for sales tax on the invoice. Neither will it reduce the sales reported on your sales by item reports. Therefore a more comprehensive method is to use a credit memo. Plus you may need to set up a new item called "bad debt write-off taxable " – Item type = other charge, account = bad debt expense, tax code = tax . To write off bad debt that did not include sales tax, set up a second item called “bad debt write-off non taxable. First create a credit memo with the tax or non taxable bad debt item and save. For versions 2005 and later, a POP-UP will ask you if you want to link this to an invoice. For earlier versions, at the customer payment window, highlight the invoice to offset with the credit memo and click the Set Credits button.
