I have a customer who had a balance of $175.85 owing and they made a payment of $200.00 which was entered into received payments. Leaving a credit of $24.15 incl gst. I want to physically pay this money back to the customer. How do I go about entering this into Reckon?

    If you use the cheque window and post to the accounts receivable account and put the customer in the customer name column it will offset the overpayment. It may also actually ask you as you enter it if you are using the credit associated with the customer. I think there are other ways as well but this is the one that comes to my mind immediately

    In the Receive Payments window of this overpayment, you should see an option down the bottom asking if you want to retain it as a credit or refund it. If you select Refund ... it will automatically create this refund Cheque for you (made out to the Customer & posting to A/R) as per Kris's info above😊
