    A cash receipts journal is used to record deposits to the bank account I have already told you the bank account is not involved If you have a purchases journal it might go in there otherwise you can make an adjusting entry in the general journal

    As I read your question the company had received a credit note for return of something they had purchased therefore it can be managed as a negative entry in the purchase journal
