You will need to do a j/e. Apply overpayment to Accounts Receivable and under Billable Name enter your customer. Debit Bank Account with Overpayment amount as well. This should put Customer in Credit and then input new invoice and apply payment from Bank Account,. Hope this makes sense. Notation should be bring to account overpayment from ???

Hi Jeanette, Thanks for the reply. I did what you suggested above and it allowed me to finally see the overpayment from the payment in March, but only allowed me to allocate to the journal i created. I was hoping to be able to allocate it to the invoice the customer applied the overpayment to at their end. What should i do from here? Thanks

The only way to show the credit would be to print out a Statement for the Customer and send to him. Pretty sure balance will show a credit.

Hi Alison I would have handled the entry this way.
You have an unapplied credit for the customer. The customer pays in August for a lesser amount. The payment made was $X + credit = invoiced amount.
What you do is if using Reckon Accounts or Hosted is to go to Receive Payments, put in the amount the customer paid you, then highlight (don't tick) the invoice the customer is paying and click credits (bottom right). Tick the credit amount and click Done, this will take you back to the Receive Payments screen where you will now see a credit column inserted. So then the payment from the customer plus the credit you took up will equal the total amount of the invoice the customer was wanting to pay.

I have tried this Shirley but I still don't show a credit available to use.

Hi Sheryl What program are you using? If it is RAH or Desktop, then the overpayment may have been used during the year against a part payment of an invoice and not specifically the correct invoice and amount. You may have to check the payments and allocation of each invoice to find the error.0

Hi Sheryl
As Shirley suggested, if you check the customer’s payment allocations, you should be able to find it & “untick” its current allocation to make it available again.
(TIP: It’s a good idea to utilise transaction Memos to make relevant notes in, as you can then “Find” a transaction via a “Description” filter search)
