I'm here to help you with recording your bounce back loan and the payment made, @Kennels9.
In recording the bounce back loan, set up a liability account. Then, use that account in recording the amount you've got from the loan by creating a journal entry.
The same goes with the company loan from your personal account, create a liability account for the journal entry to track the amount that they get from you. Then, write a cheque to track the repayments to your personal account.
To set up a liability account:
- Go to the Gear icon (⚙) and choose Chart of Accounts.
- Click New to create a new account.
- From the Account Type dropdown menu, select Non-current liabilities. Note: If you plan to pay off the loan by the end of the current financial year, select Current Liabilities instead.
- From the Detail Type dropdown, select Notes Payable (or Loan Payable).
- Set a name like "Bounce back loan."
- Select Save and close.
To record the money you got from the loan:
- Go to the + New button and choose Journal entry.
- On the first line, select the liability account you just created from the Account dropdown. Enter the loan amount in the Credits column.
- On the second line, select the appropriate asset account from the Account dropdown. Enter the same loan amount in the Debits column.
- Click on Save and close once you're done.
You can now write a cheque to record the repayments:
- Go back to the + New button and select Cheque.
- Provide all the necessary information about this cheque.
- Enter your liability account, expense, and any additional fees account in the Category Details section of the cheque.
- Click Save and close once you're done.

You can delete the uncategorised income that you've added initially, then manually reconcile those repayments. Here's how:
- Go to your Chart of Accounts and find your bank account, then click the View register link.
- Locate and select the repayments
- Under the Checkmark column, click the blank box until an "R" appears.
- Click Save.
