Hi JackieOBrien, the only way to post this would be as a credit (via receive payment) which can then be assigned to future open transactions on the project, it is not possible to post a standalone amount. We welcome you to submit any feedback that you have for this by selecting the company cog > feedback in your account, this way your thoughts and suggestions will be shared directly with our developers. :)

Hi @JackieOBrien 

I think you need to add a bit of detail/background - what you're doing & why.

 

In pure accounting terms, every debit needs a credit to balance against.  You can't add funds from fresh air - hence the Additional Credit when you add via Receive Payment.

 

If the money is being transferred from one business account to another then the credit/debit is obvious.

If the money is coming from outside the business, there needs to be an invoice or liability - such as a loan - to balance the credit.

 

Hope this helps.
