When a customer payment is returned, the bookkeeping should show the full sequence.

That can include reopening the amount owed, recording the bank return, separating any bank fee, and keeping the customer record current.

Clear records make both follow-up and reconciliation easier.

Written and cleared are not always the same date.

A check may already be recorded in the books while it is still waiting to clear the bank. Keeping that outstanding item visible helps explain the difference during reconciliation and keeps the record accurate.

Before paying an old vendor bill, take a closer look at the record.

It may already have been paid, reduced by a credit, duplicated, or left open because something was not matched correctly. Reviewing the balance first can help prevent unnecessary payments and keep vendor records cleaner.

Employee advances need a clear beginning and ending.

Track the amount issued, collect the supporting receipts, record the actual expense, and document any unused funds that are returned. That keeps the books from carrying unresolved balances longer than necessary.

Petty cash purchases may be small, but they still need proper documentation.

Keeping the date, amount, business purpose, receipt, and remaining balance organized makes it much easier to account for those expenses accurately.

Small purchases should not become missing details.

Employee reimbursements are easier to manage when the record is clear from the beginning.

Keep the receipt, note who paid, what the purchase was for, the amount, and when the reimbursement was completed. That helps the books show both the original expense and the repayment accurately.

Paying for a business purchase with your personal card happens. The important part is making sure the expense still reaches your books.

Keep the receipt and share the date, amount, business purpose, and any other useful context with your bookkeeper. That helps the transaction get recorded clearly instead of getting lost between personal and business activity.

Customer discounts should be documented clearly in the books.

Keeping the original invoice, the discount, and the final balance connected helps preserve a clear customer record and makes the transaction easier to understand later.

Void and delete may look similar in QuickBooks, but they do different things.

Voiding keeps the transaction record while reducing the amount to zero. Deleting removes the transaction from the file entirely.

Before making either change, make sure you understand what happened and what the correction should accomplish.

An old open invoice does not always mean the customer never paid.

Before sending another reminder, review the customer record. The payment may have been applied incorrectly, left unmatched, affected by a credit, or connected to a duplicate invoice.

Checking the books first helps make the customer conversation clearer.
