Thanks for your first post, @BrendanMc1966. I'm here to help ensure you're able to clear out old transactions from the creditor's account that isn't due.  

We can record a barter transaction to enter an invoice and a bill to record the products or services you’re exchanging. 

Here’s how.

1. Go to the Settings menu, then select Chart of Accounts.
2. Select New to create a new account.
3. Under the Account Type drop-down, select Bank.
4. Under the Detail Type drop-down, select Cash on hand.
5. Enter the account name (Barter Bank Account), then select Save and Close.

Once done, you can now create an invoice and receive the payment. You can follow the step-by-step guide outlined in this help article: Record a barter transaction.

For future reference, you can visit our QuickBooks self-help articles to guide you in achieving your tasks in no time.

Keep in touch if there's anything else you need help with. I've got your back.
