Reimbursements between related parties

We have several independent functioning groups/departments that we denote using different classes in QBO. Each group has its own bank account, etc. Occasionally one group will pay expenses for another group, and then is later reimbursed. What is the best method of handling this reimbursement so that cash balances are affected by P&L balances are not?

create a liability account, create an item that is linked to that liability account
Use that item on an invoice when A pays B expense
B pays it to A
A receives payment

independent functioning groups? If they are each a business, then there is a problem, each must have their own set of books.

Not truly different groups. More like departments under one entity. 

 

I will try this suggestion for an intercompany transfer.
