Quick Summary
If you've paid a supplier but haven't received the service and won't be receiving it, it should initially be recorded as an advance payment. If there's no prospect of receiving the service or a refund, this advance should be written off as bad debt. If the advance is deemed irrecoverable, it needs to be expensed accordingly.

Pls explain
It has to be considered as advance on payment..

If it's not going receive either service or advance then written of as bad debts
If you have given any advance for service to be received in cash or kind then it will shown as Advance to suppliers for service /supply to be received.
If advance is not recoverable then written off it .

If advance is yet to be reimbursed by supplier then adjust it in the advance on reimbursement
