Posting CEWS Income

SOLVED

Hi All,

I seem to have spent way too long today, trying to work out how to post CEWS to Sage 50. 

As it must be shown as income, and has been paid directly into my company bank account I set up a new account for it under Other Revenue, as a gain.

So do I then almost treat it as a customer and do an invoice for the amount that has been claimed and date it the date it was paid into the bank account? If I do so, do I need to set up a new customer as what? I have a Receiver General - Payroll, but I'm assuming I wouldn't be using that.

Please note that this is not the 10% Wage Subsidy which I have seen lots of instructions for on the internet, but that is set up a completely different way, I have literally applied for this money and it has been deposited into my bank account and now I just need to work out how to allocate it as income.

Thanks for your help.
