Recording and paying accrued interest in connection with a loan that was recorded in QuickBooks Online

Hello, 

I was able to record a loan in QuickBooks Online. Thanks to instructions provided in the Community. 

Using example numbers. The loan principal is $100,000. It has a 3% interest rate and interest in accrued daily at $8.22/day. We are currently receiving bills for payments that are being applied specifically to interest-only. What would be best practice for setting up an expense account to track interest being accrued and apply payments made?

Thank you again. 



Best,

Christopher

Record the interest monthly in the account's register using an interest expense account, probably called something like "interest" or "interest expense".
