How Can I Take a Fee from an Owner?

This can be accomplished by posting a Journal Transfer. A Journal Transfer is used to move money between ledgers. Found in GL > Journal Transfer, the example below takes a $55.00 administrative fee from the owner Harrison Golden and transfers the money to the management group. Note that the bank account must be specified, because this is transferring cash from one ledger to another. This is not a transaction that affects the bank reconciliation. Note also that in this example there is an income account and an expense account associated with the fee.

How Can I Record an Expense Paid for by an Owner?

If an owner paid for an expense for his unit and wants it to appear on his owner statement, the transaction can be recorded as a Journal Voucher. A journal voucher is a transfer of money within a single ledger. Found in GL > Journal Voucher, the example below is for an owner paid furnace repair of $150.00. The offsetting transaction for the debit for the repair account would be a credit CASH IN: Owner Contribution.

How Often Should the Bank Accounts be Reconciled and Who Should Perform this Task?

The bank accounts should be reconciled every month and ideally the reconciliation should be performed or reviewed by a person who does not have the primary responsibility for paying bills from or making deposits to the bank. Bank reconciliations are the primary financial control to detect mistakes and fraud. We offer reconciliation services if you need help reconciling or want to have an outside party perform your bank reconciliations. Please call for details and pricing.
