To reverse an applied vendor debit

Use this procedure only if your transactions are unchangeable. See "What are changeable and unchangeable transactions?" on page 64 for more information.

The vendor debit you want to reverse should be displayed. If you need help doing this, see To find a vendor debit before it's settled or To find a vendor debit after it's applied.

1. Choose Reverse Debit from the Edit menu. After a few moments, a new transaction, with an amount exactly opposite of the vendor debit's amount, will be displayed in the Settle Returns & Debits window.
2. If you want, you can make a few changes to the new transaction (such as the date and the memo), but you can't change the amounts that are associated with it.
3. Click Record. The applied vendor debit is reversed, and the balance of the purchase to which you originally applied the vendor debit is returned to its previous amount.
4. Keep in mind that an outstanding vendor debit exists again for this vendor. To settle the vendor debit, you can either apply the amount of the vendor debit to the your outstanding purchase balance with the vendor or indicate that you've received a refund from the vendor for the amount of the vendor debit.

See To apply a vendor debit and To receive a refund for more information.
