How can you write an expense check to pay an employee back to reimburse payment for receipts

Thanks for joining the Community, fredschaller1-co.
 

If an employee used their personal funds to pay for a business expense, you can pay them by creating a check or expense.

Here's how to pay the employee:
 

1. Use your + New button.
2. Choose Check or Expense.
3. From the Payee ▼ drop-down list, pick your employee's name.
4. In the Category ▼ drop-down, specify a liability account. If you don't have one yet, you can add a new account. In the event you're using Online payroll, you can create a reimbursement account.
5. Enter an amount. You can break this down into different line items if tracking or making billable for multiple customers.
6. Choose whether you want to offset your expense onto a customer's invoice with the Billable option.
7. Use your Customer drop-down to pick a customer if you're looking to track the expense for a specific customer or group of customers. In the event you're using a Simple Start subscription, you won't have options for Billable or Customer.
8. Select Save or Save and close.

I've also included a detailed resource about reimbursing employees which may come in handy moving forward: Reimburse an employee

Another option, you can signup for a free Melio account to sync QBO to pay the reimbursement. Reimbursing employees is a legitimate business expense. Due to possible credit card restrictions, you shouldn't use a credit card to reimburse an employee. Your employee will receive the reimbursement by ACH or check. As a bonus, you can get $100 cashback to pay the first one.
