Transfer money between accounts

In order to reflect the transfer of funds between bank accounts you will need to record a transfer between the corresponding Elevate bank accounts.

The most common use for this is to transfer management revenue earned within the client account through the payment of charges by landlord properties and tenants. This money must be transferred to the office account for it become the agency's own money so it can be classified as profit, and utilised within the business.
