If you have multiple loan, credit card or bank accounts, the Bank Transfer screen allows you to record transactions where you have transferred funds between two accounts. To enter a transfer:
- Select the add icon for the Bank Transfer transaction.
- Enter the date the transaction occurred and the amount of the transaction
- Select the account the money was transferred from
- Select the account the money was transferred to
- You can Tag a transaction if it relates to a particular portfolio, job or project
- Save the transaction
Examples of transactions that could be entered using the Bank Transfer screen:
- Paying money into a loan account or credit card
- For transferring money between investment accounts or business accounts
Warning
If the transaction involves GST/VAT or other tax you can’t use the bank transfer screen - use a General Journal instead.
Tip
You can add a new account on the fly by clicking the add icon next to each bank account drop down list. This will bring up a new window where you can enter the account’s information. Once you save the new account, it will be added to both account lists and automatically selected for you in the list next to the icon you clicked.
