Where should I reflect a cash amount that I kept from the deposit of a customer's check? i.e., the check was for 6,250, and I deposited 5,000 into business checking account and kept the remainder.

Hello there, @CoopDog

 

I understand you want to deposit the remainder of the payment to your personal funds' account. I'd be happy to show you how to make a manual deposit to personal funds account in QuickBooks Online (QBO).

 

Here's how:

 

In the left menu, click the +New button.

2. Under OTHER, select Bank Deposit.

3. On the Account menu, select your bank account.

4. Enter the Date.

5. Go to Add funds to this deposit section.

6. Enter the necessary information. 

7. If there's a deposit you want to include in the Select the payments included in this deposit, put a checkmark for that transaction.

8. Select Save and new

 

To learn more about creating a bank deposit, see this article: Record and make Bank Deposits in QuickBooks Online.

 

When you make a bank deposit, you're able to choose the account you want to put the money into and the payments and additional funds or fees included.

 

If you want to know what account should you use for the remaining money from the payment you received, it's always best to consult with your accountant before making any changes to the data. An accountant will know what's best for you and your business and could sort out what accounts need to be used, and what you can do with your amounts.

To clarify... I'm not looking to deposit the remainder; I am keeping the remainder as cash for personal use. In this scenario, where do I reflect that cash amount?
