QuickBooks Desktop Tips How To Pay a Credit Card Invoice

When you receive an invoice from your credit card company, it’s important to pay the invoice quickly so that you can avoid incurring late fees and interest charges. However, as you’re aware, QuickBooks Desktop doesn’t include specific features for tracking credit card expenses and payments — the application only includes invoicing and expense-tracking features.

If you want to use QuickBooks Desktop to record credit card transactions and pay the credit card invoices that you receive, you’ll need to do a bit of manual data entry.

Click on the credit card account

You can access your credit card account by clicking on the Accounts tab at the top of the screen, then selecting Credit Cards from the drop-down menu. Once you’re in your credit card account, click on the Invoices tab. This will bring up a list of all outstanding invoices for your credit card. To pay an invoice, simply click on the Pay button next to the invoice.

You’ll be prompted to enter a payment method and amount. Once you’ve entered that information, click OK to process the payment. The system will automatically charge the appropriate fee for this transaction, so don’t worry about entering any additional fees. The transaction will now show as Paid on your QuickBooks desktop dashboard.

View the transactions

When you open QuickBooks, go to the Banking menu and then select Credit Cards. Find the account you want to pay and click on it. This will bring up a list of all transactions for that account. Find the invoice you want to pay and click on it. On the right side of the screen, you will see the Payment button. Click on this and enter the amount you want to pay.

Then click OK. If there are any other payments or charges, they will be listed in the Transaction Detail box at the bottom of the screen. You can quickly scroll through them by clicking on Prev and Next until you find what you’re looking for. Once you find it, click on it to view its details just like with an invoice.
