Hi I took a quick search of the archives, but haven't found a clear answer to the situation I'm encountering. I apologize in advance if this question has been asked before.
I have an organization in which we split costs for certain expenses. I have setup the other organizations which reimburse us as "Customers" - it's very useful to report on amounts receivable, payment history etc. as we split with multiple organizations. However, historically it seems I've setup our accounts wrong, which is causing issues in reporting. For example, if we pay $100 in widgets and we agree to split with another organization, I mark the transaction as $100 on a widgets expense account, bank asset goes down $100. I setup a widgets reimbursement income account, and issue an invoice for let's say $50 to another organization. When I receive payment, I increase our bank account asset by $50, and record it against the this reimbursement income account. However, the expense account is unadjusted (as customer invoices only work against income accounts). Thus, when I run a report, it says I spent $100 in widgets, when in reality I need it to report $50. I know I could record everything manually with an accounts payable account, but really value using the Customers feature to run reports and keep track of accounts receivable. I also need some visibility on the total amount paid, not just my organization's share (due to government payroll reporting).
