How to Remove Bills Already Paid from the Pay Bills List in QuickBooks
This is one of the things you can fix using Client Data Review, if you’re using QuickBooks for Accountants. You can also go to Vendors > Pay Bills, select the bill that’s already been paid and then Set Credits. If there are no credits, it means she used an expense account on the regular check, which means she’s over-reported her expenses (once on the bill and again on the check). In this case, she can either delete bill or change the account on the check to Accounts Payable and then set the credit.
Be careful about affecting prior year numbers. You might want to get a copy of the trial balance before starting so you can prepare a journal entry to correct any changes to prior year numbers and then reverse it in 2011.
