Credit Memo in Bank Reconciliation

Posted By FormerMember

Help!

 

We were originally invoiced for a unit (over a year ago) we recently received a credit memo for the total amount of the unit and then were rebilled for the unit at a discounted price.

Original invoice created a purchase invoice to our wholesale account

Credit memo applied a payment to the wholesale account to remove the unit from inventory.

Second invoice created a purchase invoice to our wholesale account.

 

The wholesale account is balanced but I’m showing the payment on the bank reconciliation, how do I remove this payment without effecting the wholesale account?

Going forward is there a better way to process these credit memos that will not go through the bank?

    to clear out the amount in the bank. It appears the orginal invoice was paid off. I would make a general journal entry than to clear out the bank credit. I would debit the bank and credit misc. income.. because technically it is income since you paid off the original invoice.
