How to Book Returned and/or Postdated Checks
in QuickBooks and MAS 90/200
Regardless of which accounting software you are using you will want to follow some basic bookkeeping principles when dealing with these 2 events!
Returned checks. When the bank notifies you that it is returning a customer’s check for NSF (not sufficient funds), debit the customer’s account immediately—even if you plan to redeposit the check the same day. For good internal controls, instruct your bank to address all returned checks to someone other than you—possibly the owner or a senior manager. This can protect you if an employee tries to use fictitious checks to cover temporary shortages.
Postdated checks. If a customer gives you postdated checks, treat them as a note receivable. In other words, debit it to Notes Receivable, not to Cash. On the date written on the check, deposit it to your firm’s account, debiting Cash and crediting Notes Receivable.

Activating the Enter key in QuickBooks
Are you one of the millions of people that press the ENTER key expecting to proceed to the next field? Getting frustrated with the fact that every time you hit the Enter key in QuickBooks, the result you get is not what you expected?
For example, you are entering details in an invoice and need to move to another line, so naturally . . . . you hit enter. What happens then? The invoice usually disappears! RELAX – you can “have it your way”!
Alert for your employees!
Some may face underpayment of FIT
Because of the new withholding tables under the American Recovery and Reinvestment Act, some employees might want to adjust their 2009 FITW by submitting a new W-4 now. The Act reduced FITW to reflect the Make Work Pay tax credit. But for some employees, that adjustment may result in paying less than the required 90% of FIT by Dec. 31, 2009, which may lead to penalties.
See this article for more information on employees most likely to have too little withheld.
