Owners Equity

Hi All, 

 

Upon reading various discussions I've set up an Owner's Equity Account including Investment and Drawing Accounts as on occasion I've taken money out of my business and then at a later stage deposited it back into the company.

 

However when going through my reports the Investment (deposits) are being reported as sales which is incorrect (I believe) as it is inflating my sales figures.  Should this be the case?

 

Thanks in advance.

 

(first time user of Community - I hope I'm doing it right).

I had this issue with a transaction when the GST code for the transaction had been incorrectly allocated to sales, once I corrected the GST code, it took it out of sales. Maybe check that?
