I need to create pass through account in the chart of accounts in qb online.
I need to make sure the transactions do not show up on the p&l or balance sheet.
There was a paper check that was deposited into the business bank account that does not belong and should not have been deposited. The check posted and now shows up as a deposit in the banking for review tab. I need to keep this off the books as it is NOT income for this business. Then I had to write a check for that amount to withdraw the money of the check. I need to keep the expense of the books since it is not a true expense for this business.
Anyone have an suggestions on how to create pass through accounts to keep this income and expense off the p&l?
Hello there,
We can set up a clearing account and journal entry to move the deposit. I'm here to guide you through the steps.
To start with, we'll have to exclude the deposit. Here's how:
Afterward, let's add a clearing account. From there, you'll have to create a journal entry and select the clearing account. I also recommend reaching out to your accountant so you'll be guided on the correct accounts to use. I've added this reference for the detailed steps of the process: Create Journal Entries.
To ensure your transactions match your bank and credit card statements, you can reconcile them.
I'm just around whenever you have concerns about the reconciliation process.
I forgot to share that the transaction that needs to be excluded in the banking for review tab is tied in with a lump sum of other deposits that employee took to the bank and deposited the checks all together. The checks are split out within the lump sum. The transaction in question is a sales receipt and has been reconciled with the monthly bank statement.
How can I excluded that one transaction without excluding the lump sum deposit?

Some subscribers have found it helpful to unreconcile a transaction they're looking to exclude. Before unreconciling a transaction, I'd recommend working with an accounting professional to confirm if you should.
If you're in need of one, there's an awesome tool on our website called Find a ProAdvisor. All ProAdvisors listed there are QuickBooks-certified and able to provide helpful insights for driving your business's success.
In the event an accountant advises you you'll need to unreconcile a transaction, here's how:
Once you're prepared to exclude your deposit, you can do so by using the steps in Adrian_A's post.
I've also included a detailed resource about working with reconciled transactions which may come in handy moving forward: Undo or remove transactions from reconciliations
