Where do I input capital contributions?
Hey there, @suz62.
Happy to help out. If you'd like to track capital contributions or investments in QuickBooks Online, you'll need to setup an equity account. I've outlined this process for you below. You'll be a pro in no time.
- Go toSettings⚙, thenChart of Accounts.
- HitNew.
- From theAccount Typedrop-down, chooseEquity.
- In theDetail Typedrop-down, pickOwner's EquityorPartner's Equitydepending on your situation.
- Save and close.
Now you can start recording investments using this account.
Let me know if you have any other questions. I'm here as your number one resource for QuickBooks Online.

Where do I input capital contributions?
Hello Michael,
Your comment regarding capital gains/owener's equity with regard to the Chart of Acconts was very helpful. I am now faced withe the Turbotax delima. Turbotax asks what the account is used for and provides a dropdown list to choose the item that matches.This is where I encounter my problem. I do not recognize a category that maps to capitalinvestment or owner's equity. I believe assigning a tax line map in Quickbooks might resolve this issue, but what tax line map itemdo I choose.
The company is an S Corp.
No sales or generated income
All money to operate the business is from meas capital contributions. All money (contributions) are used to pay for internet, telephone, turbotax business, and of course office expenses like paper, ink etc. The business operates out of my home.

Hi @Monica F,
Igot your back on this query.
You can follow the same steps provided by @Michael K above. I also suggest consulting your accountant or bookkeeper on how to proceed. They can ensure that the account created works best for you and your business.
In case you missed it, I'll share these asticles:
- Track personal money or investments to your business
- Record paying back an investment
Place a comment below if you need further help. I'll get back to you as soon as I can.
