Hey, @redjed

 

It's great to see you back in the Community! Allow me to share insight into a nonrefundable deposit in QuickBooks Desktop. 

 

It only takes a few easy steps to track and make transactions for your question. Here's how: 

 

  1. Set up an account for upfront deposits or retainers
  2. Create an upfront deposit item. 
  3. Record upfront deposit or retainers you receive. 
  4. Create invoices. 
  5. Apply upfront deposits or retainers to invoices.

 

To learn more about these actions and how to perform them, check out this guide: Manage upfront deposits or retainers

 

This should do the trick. Come back if you have any other concerns. Take care!
