I can help you view your Credit applied field in QuickBooks, djho.

 

Currently, in QBO, the Pay bills function specific for paying an open bill through a payment account. However, there are still several ways where we can apply the Vendor Credit to the open bill.

 

One way is to navigate through the Expenses page to locate the bill and manually mark it as paid. This way, you can make the Credit section display when you create a bill payment transaction. You can follow these steps:

 

  1. Go to the Expenses section in the left navigation panel.
  2. Select the Bills tab and open the specific Bill you have generated.
  3. On the left upper side, click Mark as paid.
  4. You can then find and view the applied Credit within the Credits section.
  5.  

Alternatively, you can go to the Vendors section. Through this, you can manually locate and view the Vendor credit applied. Here's how:

 

  1. In the left navigation panel, go to Vendors.
  2. Locate the Bill you created and click on the Make payment button.
  3. Within the Bill Payment, check the Credits section to see the applied Credit.

If you're unable to see the Credit field after completing these steps, you should check for your Vendor Credit transaction and verify that it is linked to the appropriate vendor. To guarantee the accuracy of your records, you can generate a Vendor Balance Detailed report. To do this:

 

  1. Go to Reports.
  2. In the Find report by name field, enter and click Vendor Balance Detail.
  3. Filter the report period to include the date when the vendor credit transaction was created.
  4. Locate the vendor credit transaction and ensure it's associated with the correct vendor.
