I know I’m over thinking this, but that’s the problem with having used Quickbooks for so long.
I have received the invoice from the carrier who took a shipment for me. I want to enter in that invoice into the system. But I’m not quite sure where to do it.
I’ve read through the “Purchasing from Supplier” in the older how-to’s, but I guess my minds just not firing on all cylinders.
It’s simple. I receive an invoice for the carrier. And then pay that carrier. There’s no inventory involved. So if there’s someone who can give me a dumbed down version of how to enter this in properly, then that is all I need.
Creat new supplier with your carrier name. Go to Purchase invoice and enter the details. If this invoice is about carrying an inventory item and u want to allocate carrier charges to the inventory item then select that item in purchase invoice and leave the quantity column empty (Not even zero) and in unit price enter the amount.
If this carrier sent u an invoice for a non-inventory item then select an appropriate account in the purchase invoice without selecting any item.
Thanks for the great instructions. I’ve done all that, but the invoice is still showing due, even though I’ve paid the invoice. Once I put in the invoice, I did click on the "New Payment button and filled out that form. But, the invoice is still showing due and not paid.
Go to payments and post screenshot of the payment you made.
You must have edited the payment and posted it again to the Carrier pay account instead of account payable.
No need to delete. Just click on the account again where you selected carrier pay and select accounts payable. it will automatically fetch the supplier. I would suggest make a test business play around with it and do read the guides they help a lot. Manager is much simpler than Quickbooks you will learn quickly.
