In Quickbooks, I need to receive a deposit from a customer so that his balance (on CUSTOMERS) will then show as a negative figure - i.e. that we owe him the money. The deposit is a refundable item and there is no invoice to set it off against until later in the year. Thank you.
GOT IT! Bank Menu / Make Deposits / Received from = customer name / From account = Accounts receivable.
Loverly jubberly.
