I have figured out how to properly catalog the owner equity distributions as expense, but where do ai actually initiate the ACH direct deposit? Do I need to make myself a vendor and generate a bill?

Glad to have you here today, banddenterprises. It's my top priority to help you initiate the owner's equity distributions accordingly.

 

Definitely! You can set yourself as a vendor to generate a check/bill entry. This way, you can track the transaction appropriately. To start:

 

  1. Sign in to your QBO account.
  2. Click on Expenses, then Vendors.
  3. Tap on the New Vendor tab.
  4. Complete the fields in the Vendor Information window.
  5. Select Save.

 

After completing the task, you can actively write a Check, enter a Bill, or record an Expense transaction from the New Transaction dropdown menu. Or else, go to the +New icon, then choose the appropriate transaction type you need to enter.

Thank you for the response. I have successfully made our first distribution payments. So no to clarify. As long as these payments are categorized properly as owner equity payments "distributions". QuickBooks will know to account for those when we file business taxes, and give a K-1 report so we can properly account for this on our personal taxes?
