Client deposited customer payment into personal bank deposit, then transferred part back the company bank account. I need to Dr Bank,Dr Client and credit A/R. How to do?

Hi PJohnston:

1. Receive the payment in Quickbooks as you normally would.

2. Record an owner's draw against the difference in what the owner kept and the bill paid by the customer.

While not exactly what happened, it's an equivalent transaction and represents 'what should have happened' so allowable.

If you want to record it exactly as it happened:

Debit the bank for the deposit, and credit A/R for the amount of money moved back to the company.

Debit owner's draws, and credit A/R for the amount of money the boss kept in their personal account.

Hope this helps!
