How do I post purchases I make using a credit card?

I am really struggling to understand how to record purchases I made with the company credit card into Sage 50.


For example, I went to Walmart, I purchased $20 of office supplies, $30 of marketing supplies and spent $10 on some items for myself. I paid for everything on the credit card.
I have a liability account for what I owe to the company and what it owes me. I make etransfers to the company from my personal account whenever I owe it money. At the end of every month, I pay off the credit card bill at the bank.

So, how do I enter all of this information? As a general journal entry or as a payment? What do I credit and what do I debit?
Thanks!

    setup a liability account for the c/card, class = credit card payable

    under setup, settings, company, credit cards, used
    setup the c/card linked to the liability account

    create a vendor = walmart

    under suppliers & purchases, payments, pay expenses
    pay by = c/card you setup above
    vendor = walmart
    line 1 = office supplies 20$ + tax (1$)
    line 2 = marketing 30$ + tax (1.50$)
    line 3 = owner draw 10.50$ - no tax

    under suppliers & purchases, payments, pay c/card bill
    allows you to record the monthly c/card payment
