Accounting for complete refund

So how does one credit an expense account? In our case, we paid a vendor a monthly fee,and it was recorded in the expense account. We cancelled the account before the end of a month. We received a refund of $65.00. How do I credit the expenses account for the $65.00 check we received?

Working Month

How can I go back and give the ...

using restricted funds in payroll

We have restricted funds that are to be used to improve the building. We want to pay employees from this fund for the work they have done on the building. There isn't a "release restricted funds" option in payroll. How do we make this work?

Re: Accounting for restricted fund spending

I understand your choir robe example. However, if you spend $1200 dollars, with $1000 being restricted income that was released, will a report tracking how we are doing with our budget show the net $200 being out of our budgeted expenses or the entire $1200, making it look like we went $1000 over bu...

Accounting for restricted fund spending

When we use restricted funds for a budget item, using the process shown in the choir robe example, how does the report show this activity? Does the spending and offsetting income reflect in the activity, but the bottom line show just what was spent from general funds? When there is restricted funds ...

Changing group account to detail account

I finished the set up - so I thought - and then realized that some expenses accounts were "group" that should be "detail". Is there a way to change them?
