The deposit function will debit the bank account.  The offset is a credit to Shareholder Loan.  The Shareholder Loan account should be a current liability and specifically identify the shareholder who contributed the funds.

Note:  CRA doesn't care if the corporation owes a shareholder, but may take action of the shareholder owes the corporation for more than one reporting period.
