Hi 

 

I cannot seem to find a simple answer to this and its driving me crazy! Im a self employed beautician, when I've had to put personal money in to cover bills or take money out for my wage how to i characterise it? By the looks of it it seems to be owners withdrawal/ deposit but it asks if it is a business or personal transaction??   

Thanks

Hello, Emma.

 

I'll share some information on handling the owner's withdrawal in QuickBooks Self-employed.

 

You can use the owner's withdrawal category when transferring money out of your self-employed finances for personal use. Depending on how you used it, you can classify it as a personal transaction if you spent the money for personal expenses. Otherwise, it should be business transactions if it's for business expenses.

 

For more details, check out this article: Categorise money transfers in QuickBooks Self-Employed.

 

Do you want to speed up your reviews? If so, you can create bank rules to automatically categorise your transactions. Please refer to this resource for a complete guide: Create rules to speed up reviews in QuickBooks Self-Employed.

 

Feel free to add any details below if you have further questions about the owner's withdrawal. I'll be here to back you up.
