Gift Purchases

Morning. I have purchased a number of gifts for employees who are leaving but i am unsure how to record this.  I want to be able to see that these were gifts and not normal purchases.  Is there a code I should be using and how do I set this up.  Many thanks for your help.

Hello Farmgirlkent69, 

 

What you can do to record these gifts in Quickbooks is to go to 

 

The account tab on left-hand side>chart of accounts> new top right> account type would be expense>detail type - you would select whichever best fits so it would go as entertainment the gifts, for example,> name- can be whatever you would like it to be so for example gifts. 

 

Then you would go to plus new icon- select expense and create the expense and select the category as what you have just created in the chart of accounts.
