In November 2014 I received an invoice from a vendor and using the accounts payable module I entered the invoice into Sage 50.
In December 2014, to pay the vendor's invoice I emailed them an Interac e-Transfer. This meant the bank withdrew the money from our account and held it until the vendor could accept and receive the Interac e-Transfer.
Still in December 2014, I entered the payment for the vendor's invoice into Sage 50, commenting that the payment was made via Interac e-Transfer.
On December 31, 2014 I reconciled the bank account for the month of December 2014 - no issue.
In January 2015 I learned that the vendor is not able to accept Interac e-Transfers and thus I had to cancel the Interac e-Transfer. This in turn means that the amount that was held aside by the bank, has now been deposited back into the chequing account.
I will now need to write a cheque to the vendor to pay the November 2014 invoice.
My question: how do I handle this into Sage 50?
The dilema as I see it: I have to show in Jan 2015's account rec, the deposit back into the chequing account. What exactly is this "deposit?" (I know that sounds like a stupid question.)
I'm very confused :(
Anyone able to help?
Thanks,
Kristine
P.S. in case you are wondering, I have since learned the difference between an Interac e-Transfer and an EFT. Turns out it doesn't make sense for us to subscribe to the service that enables us to pay invoices via EFT so that is not a viable option at present.
