Question

Could I use Accounts Receivable as a Shareholder Register?

I'm using QuickBooks Online - Essentials

 

I'd like to use AR as a Shareholder Register. I set up a customer Shareholders and each of them as sub-customers. I set up Service codes: Capital Contributions, Employee Contributions, DRIP Reinvestment, and Redemptions. I found a way to have the Contributions and DRIP show up in a focused AR report. How could I reflect shareholder Redemptions since AR doesn't allow negative totals? I want the Contribution and Redemption to appear under separate codes. Would the refund feature work, albeit the refund directed to a different service type/account code?

 

Any suggestions would be appreciated. Thank you!
