Transfer Money From Admin To Capital Works / Sinking / Reserve Funds - Strata

And Vice Versa

Summary

There are 2 funds in Strata Master -

  • Admin Funds
  • Funds called Capital Works Funds, Sinking Funds, Reserve Funds or even Maintenance Funds depending on your location.

You may find that you have a negative balance in one fund and wish to move funds so you have positive balances in both. You may have other reasons for moving money. As both Funds added together equals the balance of the funds held in the operating bank account, there is no need to involve the Bank in this process.

Overview

Reversing a Move Funds Transaction

If you find you have made an error, using this same screen to move funds back will result in additional transactions in your I&E report. This is because the two button options above use different accounts.

Instead, move the funds back by reversing the 2 original accounts showing in search/edit transactions. Create a journal through Accounting > Adjustments > Journal Entry
