SageForum for UK versions of Sage 50- Help and support.

Hello

I am reasonably new to book keeping, and have been given something to do that I don't know how to record.

My client has given me a receipt for a purchase he made and paid by personal cheque, but he wishes me to reimburse the amount from the business account as it was a business expense.

Do I just treat it like paying an invoice, where I record it on the current account on Sage and make a bank transfer into his personal account for the amount, or do I have to do anything different?

Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Many many thanks

Jo

What you suggest sounds fine.

There are lots ways to manage expenses.

If you have lots of people doing lots of them then setting up a suppliers "Expenses" account for each person is a good way, as receipts are given, you post them as invoices to their account and then every so often write them a cheque to reimburse them for their expenses.

If you have very few, then perhaps you just do bank payments for them and make the cheque out to the person rather than the supplier.
