FIRST (Better Paper Trail)
You will create an RMA (return merchandise authorization) and mark the RMA received which will take the inventory back out of stock. You may have already done this when you sent it back. Then you can create an AP Bill for the RMA which would create a negative Bill/Credit. The Credit should be crediting the inventory account or I am assuming it is. Then when you make the deposit for the Check that they sent you back you will use the Inventory account or what ever account you used for the credit as the credit account on the deposit. To clear the Credit out of your Bills, you will need to create a positive Bill for the exact amount and then use the paybills one supplier and using the zero payment option apply the credit bill to the positive bill.
SECOND
Go into the inventory item and make an adjustment to take the items out of stock. This will create an inventory adjustment in the GL for the items being removed from inventory account and cost of goods sold. Go to the banking and deposit the check using the Cost of Goods sold account as the GL on the deposit.
