Hi there, accounts@urban-s.

 

Thank you for visiting again the QuickBooks Community. I'll share some details and steps to ensure you're able to record your transactions from one QuickBooks account to another.

 

To start transferring the entry from one QuickBooks account to another, you'll have to make some recording transactions to your Africa Turf account. I suggest creating first a bank account to represent Urban stone. Please consult an accountant before performing the process. They can provide suggestions on how to properly handle the account.

 

Here's how:

 

  1. Go to the Gear ⚙ icon and select Chart of Accounts.
  2. Click the New button to create a new account.
  3. In the Account Type dropdown, choose an account type.
  4. From the Detail Type dropdown, select the detail type that best fits the transactions you want to track. 
  5. Give your new account a name. Then, add a description.
  6. Enter the other nessary field.
  7. Click the Save and Close button.

 

For further details, you can click on this article: Add an account to your chart of accounts in QuickBooks Online.

 

Once done, you'll have to enter the payment as a deposit in your Africa Turf account to receive the transaction affecting (equity account). Please open this article to see the detailed steps on how you can perform the process: Record and make bank deposits in QuickBooks Online.

 

After that, you can transfer funds from an Africa bank account to an Urban Stone bank account. 

 

Once everything is set up, open your Urban Stone QuickBooks account. Then, I recommend creating a bank deposit affecting Account Receivable for a customer.

 

Once created, you'll have to link the bank deposit to an invoice to show it as paid. This keeps your records accurate and prevents errors when it's time to reconcile your accounts.

 

Lastly, you may refer to this article to see how the Sales page gives you a status of sales transactions like open invoices, and paid invoices: View sales transactions.

 

Don't hesitate to reply below if have any follow-up questions about the recording sales transactions. I'm always here to assist you. Have a good one.
