I don't understand how the debit card charge and subsequently debit card refund is properly accounted for.  The sequence of events was

 

(1) I purchased a subscription service from Adobe Inc

(2) Adobe Inc charged my debit card $14.99 on 1/5/22

(3) Adobe Inc refunded my debit card $14.99 on 1/6/22

 

If I simply enter a Bill for $14.99 on 1/5/22 and a credit for $14.99 on 1/6/22, the two can cancel each other out in the Pay Bills window.  That makes sense, but then I have no record of the money going out and coming back in in the register for my checking account register in Quickbooks.  The transactions simply aren't there, which causes a problem if I attempt to reconcile my quickbooks transaction history with my bank account statements.

 

How should I handle the transactions in my Quickbooks checking account register?
