Pay vendor with cash

When you say make a transfer from checking to cash, if using Desktop Pro, is this the same as making a deposit from cash to checking?

Thanks for joining this thread, @quinn1. Yes, it's the same as depositing cash to checking using a Desktop Pro version of QuickBooks.

For future reference, you can check out our help article: Record and make Bank Deposits in QuickBooks Desktop. It also guides you on how you can combine multiple transactions into a single record in QB Desktop to match with your real-life bank deposits.

My question now is related to this topic.

Single member LLC. I paid some expenses with my personal credit card. To record these purchases, do I do the same as above, and create a separate bank account with another title? Am I understanding this correctly. Thank you for your time!!

Thank you for posting here in the Community, quinn1.

I suggest using the Journal Entry feature in recording the business expense paid using your non-business related credit card. However, it's recommended consulting an accountant for expert advice on the accounts to use during the process.

Here are the steps:

1. Click the Company tab at the top menu bar.
2. Select Make General Journal Entries.
3. Enter the Date and Entry No.
4. Choose the accounts to debit and credit.
5. Fill-in necessary information.
6. Hit Save & Close.

If you need the steps on how to record the expenditure reimbursement, please refer to the instructions below:

1. Click on Banking at the top menu bar.
2. Select Write Checks.
3. Fill in the necessary information.
4. Choose the account you're reimbursing within the program (you can also use petty cash).
5. Click on the Expenses tab (see screenshot below).
6. In the Account column, select the expense account that you want to associate with the transaction.
7. Enter the Amount of the reimbursement.
8. Select Save and close or Save and new.
