Welcome to QuickBooks Online! We're thrilled to have you on board, Maki.
I've got the steps needed to ensure the transaction isn't recorded as income twice.
QuickBooks Online offers two options for this. You can record the reimbursement as a Check or as an Expense. I'll guide you through the process.
To record as a check:
- Click + New and select Check.
- Choose a bank account to reimburse the personal funds.
- In the Category column, select Partner's equity or Owner's equity.
- Enter the amount.
- Click on Save and close.
To record as an expense:
- Click + New and select Expense.
- Select a bank account to use to reimburse the personal funds.
- In the Category column, select Partner's equity or Owner's equity.
- Enter the amount.
- Click on Save and close.
