Cash received for cash sales instead of banking I would like to use to top up Petty Cash
- 3 years ago
Hi Monicka11
Thanks for your post. One way to handle this would be to change the Deposit to Account to the petty cash account when recording the Receive Money/Receive Payments transactions.
Another option would be to leave the Deposit to Account as the bank account when recording the payment transactions. Then record a Transfer money transaction for the amount added to petty cash. The Transfer from account would be the bank account and the Transfer to account would be the petty cash account. In the Reconcile accounts window you would need to manually reconcile the deposit (payment) with the withdrawal (Transfer money) by ticking those transactions.
If you had multiple cash payments, you could tick the Undeposited Funds option when recording the Receive Money/Receive payments transactions. Then process the bank deposit transaction in the Prepare Bank Deposit window by changing the Deposit to Account to the petty cash account and selecting all the cash payment transactions.
I'd also recommend reconciling the petty cash account for audit purposes.
Please let me know if you need further help.
