How should reimbursements be handled?
q014.style.display = ‘none’; Sometimes employees or members use their own money to purchase church supplies and then get reimbursed. Other times, someone may use church-owned supplies for personal use and then reimburse the church. If the church is being reimbursed, you can either enter a Receipt or a negative Payment. The reason you might do the latter is to get a truer picture of church-related expenses. For example, if people reimburse the church for personal use of the photocopy machine, you can enter those reimbursements as negative payments under Copier Expenses rather than create and track a Receipts account called Copier Reimbursements. If desired, you can have the program remind you that reimbursement is expected by entering Accounts Payable or Accounts Receivable transactions.
