Question

Journal entries for flowthrough amounts

Hi,

 

each month I invoice Company A on behalf on Company B, our subcontractor.   I pay Company B and then wait to be reimbursed by Company A.  These are not expenses - we're just invoicing on behalf of Company B.  The trouble is that when I invoice Company A, the amount gets booked as revenue in QBO without a correcting JE.  What are the journal entries to record when 1) Company A is invoiced, ii) Company B is paid, and iii) when payment is received from Company A?

 

Many thanks in advance for any insight.
