Good Afternoon, 

 

I am hoping you could help me out.  We use a 3rd party to do our payroll, weekly I receive our register and other reports, and taken out of our bank account are the taxes, net payroll, and billing(3 transactions).  We also subscribe to QB time.  We had an employee need a cash advance, we wrote a check,  now I am not able to separate the net pay into all the different employees, unless I set them all up as vendors.  None the less how am I to record the payback of the cash advance, the advance is set up as an Employee Advance account in QBO, and logged.  how do I match the payback if I only have the one withdrawal from our account?  If this is at all possible without adding everyone as a vendor, even though they are already in the system as employees.

Thanks for providing details of your concern, PesMilford. I'm here to help you match the payback for the cash advance in your QuickBooks Online account.

 

To match this withdrawal to your bank account, it's correct that you made a check affecting your Employee advance account. When recording the payment, we should create a bank deposit affecting the Employee advance account. I'll guide you on how:
 

  1. Go to the + New icon.
  2. Select Bank Deposit.
  3. From the Account ▼ dropdown, choose the account you want to put the money into.
  4. Put a checkbox for a transaction.
  5. Fill in the rest of the fields.
  6. Click Save and close or Save and new.
