Sync supplier credit notes to QuickBooks Online

Overview

Find out how to synchronize supplier credit notes with QuickBooks Online.

Supplier credit notes must be synced to QuickBooks Online to keep your books in order.

When you sync a new supplier credit note, a matching vendor credit is created in your QuickBooks Online general ledger. You can only sync a supplier credit note with

  • a Supplier Credit Note Date,

  • a Supplier Credit Note No,

  • a non-zero Total, and

  • a contact linked to QuickBooks Online.

Additionally, on the Admin page of the supplier credit note, its Accounting Status must be set to Not Imported Yet Or Reset For Re-import, although all supplier credit notes meet this condition by default; once the supplier credit note has been synced, its Accounting Status gets set to Imported.

The matching vendor credit is given a unique reference. That reference, shown in the Reference column on the Purchases > Supplier Credit Notes tab of your QuickBooks Online integration dashboard, is a combination of (a) a unique serial number and (b) the original supplier credit note’s reference.

Note that, if the reference on the dashboard exceeds 21 characters, it will be truncated to 21 characters in QuickBooks Online.

Once you’ve synced a supplier credit note, you can apply the matching vendor credit to a bill in QuickBooks Online.
