You can learn how to put payments into the Undeposited Funds account in QuickBooks Desktop. Customer payments are kept in QuickBooks’ Undeposited Funds account until you deposit them at a real-life bank. When you receive your deposit slip, you can merge these payments into one record so that QuickBooks and your bank records are in sync.

Save Time, Reduce Errors, and Improve Accuracy

Dancing Numbers helps small businesses, entrepreneurs, and CPAs to do smart transferring of data to and from QuickBooks Desktop. Utilize import, export, and delete services of Dancing Numbers software.

Below are the steps of how to put payments into your Undeposited Funds account before you merge them.

Step 1: Put Payments into the Undeposited Funds Account

Payments Processed with QuickBooks Payments

QuickBooks takes care of everything if you process invoice payments with QuickBooks Payments for Desktop. Payments don’t have to be moved to an account or combined.

Invoice Payments you Process Outside of QuickBooks

The funds are automatically placed into Undeposited Funds by QuickBooks after you follow the procedures to receive payment for an invoice. Then move onto Step 2 and then deposit the payments.

Sales Receipt for Payments You Process Outside of QuickBooks

Payments from sales receipts are automatically deposited by QuickBooks into the Undeposited Funds account. Create a sales receipt, and QuickBooks will take care of the rest.

If you want to select which account to deposit money into:

  • By going to the Edit menu you have to select Preferences
  • From the list, you have to select Payments and then you have to go to the Company Preferences tab.
  • Then you have to select and uncheck the Use Undeposited Funds as a default deposit to account checkbox.
  • Lastly, you have to select OK.

Each time you create a sales receipt, you can now choose an Undeposited Funds account or another account.

  • You have to select Create Sales Receipt from the Homepage.
  • From the customer drop-down menu, you have to select the customer.
  • Then you have to select Undeposited Funds from the Deposit in the drop-down menu.
  • After that, you have to fill out the rest of the form.
  • Lastly, you have to select Save and Close.

You don’t have to combine payments in QuickBooks if your bank records a single payment as its own deposit. Instead, you can exclude Undeposited Funds and deposit the money directly into an account.

Step 2: Make a Bank Deposit

You can record a bank deposit and combine the payments in QuickBooks with your deposit slip in hand. All the payments that are in the Undeposited Funds account will automatically appear in the Bank deposit window. To combine the payments you have to use your deposit slip to decide.

Next Step: Review Your Undeposited Funds Account

It’s good to regularly check your Undeposited Funds account and clear out any payments that are waiting to be moved.

  • You have to select Chart of Accounts from the Lists menu.
  • On the Undeposited Funds, you have to right-click and then select QuickReport: Undeposited Funds.
  • Then you have to select All from the Dates drop-down menu and then select Customize Report.
  • Now you have to select the Filters tab. After that, you have to scroll down the Filter list and then select Cleared.
  • Select No in the cleared section. After doing all you have to select OK.

The report will list any transaction that is still in the Undeposited Funds account. Follow step 2 “Make a Bank Deposit” to add these payments to a deposit.
