Hi there, @Jmp17.

 

You don't need to delete those deposits but instead, you can apply them to an invoice. This way, all of the negative amounts from your deposits will be removed from the A/R Aging report. Let me guide how.

 

The reason why the deposits still sit as a negative amount on the report is that you create an invoice then received the payment at the same time. The best way to remove them is to apply the deposits as a credit to an invoice. Here's how:

 

  1. Go to the Customers menu, then select Create Invoices.
  2. Choose the customer from the Customer:Job drop-down.
  3. Enter the necessary information.
  4. Click Apply Credits.
  5. Hit Yes to confirm the changes.
  6. In the Apply Credits window, select the deposit from the Credits tab. (Make sure the amount is the same with the invoice)
  7. Click Done. (The invoice will be marked as paid)
  8. Hit Save & Close to save the invoice.

Once done, you can now review the A/R Aging report to double-check if the deposit with a negative amount already removed.

 

I'm adding this article for your future reference: AR Balance on the Chart of Accounts does not Match AR balance on Reports.
