Transferring funds between two bank accounts (two funds) should result in an offsetting debit or credit in each fund. How is this offsetting entry posted?

If you transfer between two cash accounts, you will debit one and credit the other.  The problem is that you need to also post an offsetting debit and credit in each fund.

Transferring funds between two bank accounts (two funds) should result in an offsetting debit or credit in each fund. How is this offsetting entry posted?

Hello, gfra. I'll share some insights about how offsetting entries are posted, gfra. 

 

In QuickBooks, after processing the fund transfer, you can review its offsetting entries by accessing the Transaction Journal report. This report displays the debits and credits for each transaction and can be customized to provide advanced insights or for auditing purposes. 

 

Here's how: 

 

  1. Locate the transfer on the Magnifying icon. 
  2. On the lower section of the page, hit More
  3. Select Transaction journal.  
  4. Customize it accordingly (optional). 
  5. Once done, click the Save or Save As green button.

I'm still ready to assist with fund transfer management. Take care and have a good day!
