Feeling like I should know the answer...how do I correctly reflect reimbursing an employee for a business expense. We do not use Payroll.

Hi Dash2024,

Welcome to Community!  When an employee uses their personal funds to pay a business expense, you can reimburse them seamlessly, so your accounts remain accurate in QuickBooks Online.  I would be glad to assist!

To pay your employee, you'll need to create a cheque or expense, ensuring the appropriate accounts are applied.  Here's a helpful guide for your reference.  When recording an expense paid by the owner of the company, who is using personal funds to pay for a business expense, the transaction would reflect in the Partner's equity or Owner's equity account.  For more information, click here.

If you have any other questions, feel free to reach out again.  We are always happy to help!
