Note: The Effective Date is the date you expect the cheque to clear, and appear on your statement.
There are two simple steps. First you enter the basic details (above) then you “Code” the expenditure (below)
2b) Coding the expenditure for the above transaction to a petrol account PET-1
See Screenshot
Note that you can add notes to explain the expense
.
3 Adding a Debit transaction, SPLIT into 2 elements
This is how you would add a transaction for the instance where you have paid two bills with one Cheque.
e.g. an Electricity Bill and a Telephone Bill.
The total amount (£250) is the sum of the two bills.
The elements in this example are:
£150 for the electricity bill, coded to category “Electricity”
£100 for the Phone Bill, coded to category PHON
See Screenshot
You use the Add a line button to split a transaction into elements.
You then assign a value and a code to each line.
You can split the transaction into as many elements as you wish.
You code each element separately (see screenshot for 2b above)
Example 2
You could do a similar type of split transaction a) for NET and b) for VAT
4 A DOUBLE transaction. Paying your VISA bill from a CURRENT account
For this case, Bank Genie allows you to create a DEBIT in your CURRENT account and a CREDIT in your VISA account in one simple transaction.
First you select a SPECIAL code called TRANSFER in the coding screen
This code is configured for you when you install the software.
You can add and delete many codes in Bank Genie (Petrol, electricity etc) but you cannot delete TRANSFER. It is protected by hard code in the program
to enable this special feature.
See Screenshot
The Transfer To pop-up is enabled ONLY when you code to TRANSFER
Once enabled, you can select YOUR Visa account (you define all your your personal Accounts on setup)
See screenshot
Then click the Add button
