Easiest way might be to just make a sub-account under Repairs for whatever was damaged (e.g. Damaged Deck Repairs 2021) and then put all the expenses for the repairs in that sub-account. In theory, those expenses should be what you submitted to the Insurance Co.
Then when the payment comes in, assign it to the same sub-account.
But that only works for a straight wash with repairs. If there was a Loss and you were just paid out a lower amount than whatever was distroyed, you'll want to consult your Tax Accountant to make sure the entries show the loss at the end of the year.
