Paying for expenses with personal funds without reimbursing

@extremeautodetailingwny 

"put in the Bank/Credit Account** category. I tried my Owner's Equity account"

This's the right way to go. It should have worked. It workes on mine. You may want to try from the desktop computer. 

(From the left Dashboard > Banking tab > Receipts).

This is where a fake Clearing bank type account comes in handy. Record the expenditures from Clearing. Then make a deposit to Clearing from Owner Equity Contribution. 

What would be a good name to call this clearing account when I make it? Also once I do the Expense transaction then the Deposit transaction, am I able to get the receipt image for the transaction to “Match” to these transactions?

Welcome back, @extremeautodetailingwny.

Yes, once you create an Expense transaction, you can add the receipt as an attachment. It's a very easy process just follow the steps below.

1. Go to the Banking tab.
2. Pick the Receipts section.
3. Click on the For Review section.
4. Under the "Action" column, press Create Expense if you haven't already or the drop-down arrow to choose Review to see the receipt and match it up with an Expense that is already created.

To properly get the best answer to what name you should give the clearing account, I recommend consulting with your accountant to be sure.
