Pay Bills with Credit Card

[suzannemead]

If you are entering your bills properly through the Enter Bills screen and paying them through the Pay Bills screen, all you need to do is select the credit card you want to use on the bottom of the screen. Choose Payment Method - Credit Card, and Payment Account - Whatever Credit Card you use. You don't need to make any other entries to the credit card account.When you pay a bill with a credit card you will see the charge to the card in the card's register with the word "Billpmt" in the reference column. Charges you enter through Banking>Enter Credit Card Charges will have "CC" in that column. You reconcile the credit card statement with your account the same way you do your bank accounts. Just go to Banking>Reconcile Credit Card. There is a box to enter the finance charge on that screen also.

Hi. I have quickbooks pro v2007.

I have two CCs on my system. CC1 and CC2. Most of my bills are paid via CC2. But when I go to the pay bill screen, it always defaults to CC1. When I switch it to CC2 and pay a bill, after clicking "pay more bills", it defaults back to CC1. It doesn't always do this. Usually it's sticky (i.e. it remembers the last CC I used), so this issue is intermittant.

Can you offer any advice?

Thanks,

Michael

It will default to the card at the top of the list in your chart of accounts. Go to the chart of accounts and slide the account to the top of the list by the "diamond" on the left of the credit card name.

I had this same problem before, too. I had my brother-in-law fix it and everything got okay. I should have observed what he was doing.
