Hi dmtairbnb23-gmai, thanks for posting on the Community

 

Business expenses already incurred can be recorded using an expense transaction. If you plan to pay for the expense at a later date, enter it as a bill instead. Both of these transaction types can be accessed from the + New button. 

 

If the expense is for a personal transaction paid for with the business card, you can record and reimburse this by following the steps below: 

 

Step 1: Record a personal expense from a business account


1. Select + New.
2. Select Cheque or Expense.
3. Select a Payee from the dropdown ▼ menu.
4. Select the Bank Account or Payment account from the dropdown ▼ menu.
5. In the Category details section, select the dropdown menu ▼ to select the category that fits your need.
6. Enter the Amount of the purchase.
7. Select Save and close or Save and new.

 


Step 2: Reimburse the company


1. Select + New.
2. Select Bank Deposit.
3. Select the Account to add the reimbursement to, and select the Date.
4. Go to the Add funds to this deposit section. In the Received From field, enter the person who made the personal expense, then select the account.
Tip: Add the person as a customer if they aren't in your books already. Even if they're not a customer, this is the best option.
5. Select the Payment Method and enter the reimbursement amount.
6. Select Save and close or Save and new.
