Credit Balance With a Vendor
Neither accounts payable nor credit balances with vendors are reflected in Jewel. Most church accounting programs, including Jewel, are cash basis, not accrual, accounting. There a couple of ways you can handle vendor credits.
- Request a refund. When the refund is received, deposit into the bank in a separate, non-Sabbath deposit. The simplest way to post a non-offering deposit to Jewel is via "General Journal Entry" in the lower right-hand corner of the Reconciliation page. You may also post it by going to Accounting -> Make General Journal Entry. Be sure to post the refund to the church account which was first charged for the expense. If the credit is from a prior year and the accounts have been zero-ed out at year-end, then you would post the refund to Church Budget.
- Wait until future purchases zero out or reverse the credit balance.
