Oh, thank you so much

Best Answer

1. On the Invoice you wish to write-off, click CREDIT NOTE

2. Enter the reason, and a future reversal date* (change the Journal as needed) and click REVERSE

3. Change the account on the Credit line(s) to the contra-asset account you want to use


When the Credit Note is posted, the debit will be moved / reclassed to your Bad Debt account. It is automatically matched to the Customer Invoice.


* a future reversal date is necessary so you can edit the account on the Credit Note before posting, if you cannot do this you will need to

  • click RESET TO DRAFT on the Credit Note to unpost it
  • adjust the account to the contra-asset account you want to use
  • click CONFIRM to post the Credit Note
  • scroll to the bottom and click ADD to match the Credit Note with the original Customer Invoice
