Expenses
Hello -

Each year our club collects $25 per member to cover
administrative expenses of the club. I am wondering how to
best report that in Bivio. The money is usually just put
into our savings account and then transferred into our
checking account to be used for expenses as needed. It
never ends up in our brokerage account. If I go into Bivio
and just input the expense it throws our account balance
off. Any ideas on how to best handle this? I would like to
give our members the tax deduction from the expense but I am
unsure how to report it.

Thank you,

Andy
Hi Andy,
 
I have some unanswered questions about your post. Is your savings account set up as a bivio account? If so, record the $25/member as payments going to the savings account. When you transfer the money into your checking account, record the transfer in bivio. When you pay the expenses, designate the checking account as the source of the expenditure. This should keep your accounts in balance and give your members the tax deduction.
 
I was unable to find your club from your email address. If this message does not answer your question, please send a message to support@bivio.com

       I receive E-mails like this all of the time. Most of the time I am not related or interested in the content. Can you determine why I receive these, figure out why they are sent to all of the receipents, and teach a class as to how to use the system. That way those of us who receive these may not get so many unrelated E-mails.
