I need to know need to find out how to pay the owners of my business

You can create or an expense transaction when paying the owner of your business, Gina. I'm here to guide you on how.

First, you need to create an equity account from the Chart of Accounts.

1. Click on Accounting at the left pane, then select Chart of Accounts.
2. In the Chart of Accounts window, tap New.
3. From the Account Type drop-down, choose Equity.
4. From the Detail Type drop-down, choose Owner’s Equity.
5. Fill in the other information, then hit on the Save and Close button.

Once done, you're now ready to record a check.

1. Go to the +New icon, then click on Check.
2. Choose the bank account where the funds are taken from.
3. Select Print later if you want to print the check.
4. Fill in the check fields. In the Account field, be sure to select the Owner's equity you created. The memo field is optional. It appears in the register, on printed checks, and on reports that include this check.
5. Save the transaction.

If you’re paying him or her with a debit or credit card, you can record the payment as an expense.
