How do I categorize a payment in QBO made to my husband's account for a stock item he bought on his personal credit card?

Hello and thanks for visiting us today, @useradele,

I can guide you through the process of recording business expenses using personal funds. The first step will be recording the purchase made by your husband. Follow the steps below:

1. Press the + New button then select Journal entry.
2. On the first line of the journal entry, choose the expense account for the purchase.
3. Enter the purchase amount in the Debits column.
4. On the next row, select Partner's equity or Owner's equity.
5. Enter the same purchase amount in the Credits column.
6. Hit Save and close.

Once done, you may now reimburse the personal spending. There are two options for this. Take a look at the steps below.

Reimbursement using a cheque:

1. From the + New icon, choose Cheque.
2. Pick an account to use to reimburse the personal funds.
3. In the category column, select partner's equity or owner's equity.
4. Enter the reimbursable amount.
5. Press Save and close or Save and new.

Reimbursement using an expense transaction:

1. Go to the + New button and then pick Expense or Add expense.
2. Enter the bank account to use for the reimbursement of the personal funds.
3. In the category column, select partner's equity or owner's equity.
4. Enter the amount of the reimbursement.
5. Select Save and close.
