How to "Un" Apply Credits In QuickBooks

Image
Got a QuickBooks Mess? Call The QuickBooks Gal! Welcome to the QuickBooks Minute. I’m Jayne Miller, the QuickBooks Gal Recently, one of our Reno QuickBooks customers asked about "unapplying" credits in QuickBooks. While there are nicely labeled apply credits buttons, there are none marked unapply. This is the case for both customers (invoicing) and vendors (paying bills).

I’m Jayne Miller, the QuickBooks Gal Do you know the difference between a QuickBooks Back up (.qbb), QuickBooks Portable file (.qbm), Accountant's Copy (.qbx) and a QuickBooks Company file (.qbw)? As a consultant & a bookkeeper, I am often asked what's the difference between these types of files. Many times a client will bring me their work along with what they think is a backup when, in fact, they have just copied the entire QuickBooks company file. Of course, I can't restore from that type of file, however I can drag & drop it into the proper directory on my computer in order to process their work. However, if they had just brought a backup or portable file, then I could have restored and worked just as easily and they would not risk their company file by copying it....I am always afraid that I might accidentally delete it, so I stay away from that option! Here's a comparison o...
