Inter-company funds transfers

Hi LyndsayB 

Thanks for your post. If you have multiple companies you can set up loan liability accounts, for example, in Company A set up a loan liability account for Company B. When you create the loan liability accounts select Credit Card as the Account Type.

If Company A pays a Company B bill, enter the bill as normal in Company B. When recording the payment, or if you're recording a Spend money transaction, select the Company A liability account in the Bank account field. In Company A record a Spend money transaction, select the bank account in the Bank account field and allocate to the Company B liability account.

If funds are transferred between different company's bank accounts, record Transfer money transactions. The From account is the account funds are being withdrawn from and the To account is the account funds are being deposited to. For example, Company A transfers funds into Company B's bank account, in Company A the From account is the bank account and the To account is the Company B liability account. In Company B the From account would be Company A liability account and the To account is the bank account.
