Last week I showed you how to enter bills into QuickBooks, which adds to your accounts payable balance. This week I cover how to pay bills in QuickBooks, which will decrease the A/P balance. It’s actually a pretty easy process, but applying discounts and credits can be a little tricky sometimes.

Hi there! I'm Mike. I am a CPA and an Advanced Certified QuickBooks ProAdvisor. I teach QuickBooks locally in classrooms and do one-on-one training sessions. I created this site so I could extend my teaching to more people and offer them the best support possible.
Thank you very much for your video: Paying Bills in QB! Very helpful and easy to follow!
I watched the first 5 episodes so far and I have to say THANK YOU! You’ve done a really good job and these videos helped me a lot.
Thank you and I am glad that you are enjoying the videos!
Thank you for the informative video! I have a question regarding applying credits which is why I searched for help and found your video.
) Example: I have a vendor with a lot of invoices. I choose several from a list of invoices on their statement. Then I go to Set Credits. For some reason it doesn’t want to give me the whole credit unless I actually have the invoice highlighted that the credit applied to. Like a $94.99 credit to be applied I have to highlight the actual invoice for $94.99 — otherwise it just calculates some other amount. And, what if I have a credit but it doesn’t match to an invoice? hard to get the total to be paid to match their statement because of this. THANK YOU!!!! Paula
Thank you very much. I just found this website on search engine. Your lessons are very helpful for me as i just start a small business.
appreciated.
thanks so much for the tutorials. I am trying to learn quickbooks on my own and your videos are very helpful!
Thanks Kim!
Awesome job. Thank you Mike!!
Hey Mike;
Excellent video. I like the casual style; and your wealth of knowledge and experience and tips are greatly appreciated.
Quick questions for you:
I have written some checks that I have entered into QuickBooks before I entered the Bill. When I try to pay the Bill with checks, if I enter the check number (i have already entered in the system) it gives me a duplication error. I was hoping it would be smart enough to find the check and ask me if it should associate the check with the bill. What do you recommend? Never enter the check before the Bill, or is there a trick?
Thx;
