How to Enter Deposits in Quickbooks:

1. From the Customer’s Navigator Window (of Customer’s from the Menu Bar) choose “Receive Payments”

1. If you have just one check to deposit, click “Deposit Directly to: People’s Bank”

2. If you have multiple checks to deposit, click “Group with other undeposited funds.”

2. Fill in all appropriate information about the payment(s) – Customer, amount, check number, etc. 

3. If it was just one check, the deposit will go directly to the check register.

4. If you chose group with undeposited funds, there is one additional step and that is: “Make Deposits”

5. When the deposit is complete, choose Print from this dialogue box to give you a listing of amounts and customers that make up the detail for the deposit slip.

Using this process will make bank reconciliations easier because the deposit amount in the register will match the deposit amount on the bank statement.
