Could someone please tell me the correct way of handling petty cash in Quickbooks? What my company has been doing so far is just writing a check "Cash" and cashing it at the bank. Is this correct?

Thank you very much

How you get the cash in the petty cash drawer is not the important part. What entries are you making?

dr petty cash
cr cash
setup of petty cash fund

dr the account that is paid from petty cash
cr petty cash
recording the payment out of petty cash

At this point the pd vouchers in the petty cash box+ cash in the box will allways equal the original total that was setup for petty cash

dr petty cash
cr cash
replenish the petty cash fund to its original amount
