Refund to client with zero balance due

SOLVED

Seems like I have asked this before, but I can't find the answer...

We have a client who has paid all their bills.  Then it turns out that a $22 expense we paid with a check never cleared our bank account.  We don't want to re-pay the vendor, we want to refund the amount to our client (since they paid it back in April).

How do I do this?

    Do you need to show this in Timeslips or can you simply cut an operating account check back to the client for the $22?  If you need top memorialize it in Timeslips and don't need to use client funds, simply issue a credit for the $22 and in the description indicate what is going on and then apply an invoice type transaction to use up the credit keeping A/R true.  Mail client the bill with credit and invoice transaction on it as well as the check and you are done.

    If you need to mess with client funds, do deposit/withdrawal from funds with appropriate descriptions.

    Allen,

    If I don't keep Timeslips current in terms of A/R, and my boss asks me (a year from now) how much (net) we billed a client, or how much they paid, I'd like to know that the numbers in TS are accurate.  Otherwise, I have to devise some method of keeping track of which clients in TS have correct and complete A/R data and which do not.

    How to you handle such information if you just refund the amount outside of Timeslips?
