Default Re: Accounting for refunds?

Sam,

Just make that new paycheck a split transaction and add the $500 dollar
as income in the original expense category (i.e. Automobile:Repair). You
might get a warning, about putting income in the expense category, but
in this case it's okay.

The only issue with this could be, that the refund appears in a
different period, so depending on the type and the date range of the
report both values might not appear together or one of them might not
fall into the date range.

Default Accounting for refunds?

How do you account for refunded expenses in Money? For example my
truck was damaged at work (a forklift backed into it), I paid for the
expenses out of pocket, roughly $500, and was reimbursed by the company
on my next paycheck. So now if I create a report showing all my
automobile expenses I see this $500 repair but I do not see the credit
from the company to refund that expense so my automobile expenses are
exagerated. How can I record the reimbursement in such a way that it
balances the expense?

Thanks, Sam
