Set up a bank account called 'Clearing Account'. You are going to use this account to deposit the "payment" from your tenant as well as "pay" your tenant for the work they did. The two "payments" will cancel each other out and you will also have booked $500 in rental income and $500 in expenses, netting to $0, which is what you want.
First, create the invoice for the tenant's rent, receive the payment on the invoice, and deposit it to the newly-created Clearing Account. Then, create a bill for the work he did and pay it using the same Clearing Account. That's it.

Thank you. I do see a bank account called " cash on hand" that came with the program but it will not allow me to edit the name. You're right I will have to create a new one.
I just tried to create a new bank account under "banks" then below is a section called "tax form section" with options to choose. Not sure which one to choose. My choices are cash on hand, checking, money market, rents held in trust, savings, trust. I have to choose one to create this bank account.
Can someone help me create a clearing account? I'm not able to edit an account that has not be used yet.
The tax form section, I do not know which one to choose. It says 'cash on hand'
Create a new bank account and choose savings or checking for the tax form section. Since this account will never carry a balance, it’s not important which tax form section you choose.
When I do receive payment what form of payment do I use??
Thank you so much. This helps a lot.
