Company B bill amount deposited in Company A account

Hello @EdnaBen:

 

I am going to "assume" that the same people own Company A and Company B for this answer. If that is not correct, please post back.

 

  1. Open Company A in QBO.  Go to + accounting>chart of accounts>new
  2. Create an account called "exchange" and make it an equity account.  Deposit that check by going to +bank deposit in Company A.  Post it to the exchange account.
  3. Write a check from Company A to Company B.  Post that check to that same equity acct. called "exchange".  This will zero out that exchange account on company A.
  4. Open Company B in QBO. Go to + Bank deposit.  Deposit that check to Company B just like it came directly from that customer.  +Receive payment.  Write good notes as to why this happened and why the check came from Company A to post to the customer account.

We hope that helps you!  This would actually make a great video answer someday!  If you have further questions let us know.
