I have a liability associated with a Dividend.  I already created my Journal Entry that took the Retained earnings and created the Dividends Payable Liability.


The problem I am having now is...   How do I record the payment to myself and link that to the Liability account.


The "Vendor Payment" screen doesn't have a place to link to the account associated with the payment.


Thank you for any help.


p.s. I don't want to use any additional Apps because I only get one free App which is the core Accounting App.

You will need to a do a reconciliation to adjust the payment against the liability. Process the payment and then go to Accounting > Accounting > Reconciliation to make the reconciliation adjustment.

Whoever coded this site so that new users can't comment on answers made a bad decision in my mind.  Now I have to create new answers just to comment...


Pinakin, will that help me be able to reconcile my bank statements to the journal entries?  I already have journal or purchase receipts to capture the core transaction.


Paresh, I will look into that procedure to see if I can reconcile that way.

You may create manually new journal entry to allocate the payment against the liability.
