On initialization the opening retainer balances from Amicus Cloud are exchanged with QBO as credit memos. This reduces the invoice paid with the general retainer in Amicus Cloud.
The retainer refund is sent as an invoice for the amount of the refund with a payment of the same amount.
"Retainer Refund" is included in the Description.
|
Note: Amicus Cloud allows the write up of a client cost on an invoice without recording the expense. |
The general retainer refund in Amicus Cloud posts the entry to QB Desktop as a general journal with a credit to the general bank account and a debit to the retainer account as mapped in the link wizard.
