Overview
When using VRTrust alongside QuickBooks, your goal is to:
Track trust cash activity
Track trust liabilities
Avoid duplicating accounting between systems
π§Ύ Best Practice
Record All Trust Activity in QuickBooks As:
1. Trust Cash
Use your trust bank account
2. Trust Liabilities
Post to a:
β€ Trust Liability Account
π‘ Example
If you receive a $1,000 payout:
Debit: Trust Bank Account
Credit: Trust Liability Account
Hint: Use bank rules to accomplish this!
β Result
QuickBooks reflects:
Total trust cash
Total trust obligations
VRTrust remains the system of record for detailed accounting (i.e. the Trust Account Subledger)
π« What NOT to Do
Do not attempt to recreate full trust accounting workflows in QuickBooks
Do not push detailed transaction-level data unnecessarily
Do not try to map and post complete account/TB from VRT to QBO
