Usually the General Journal is used to change the balances of the accounts.

When the owner contributes money to the company, Debit the business bank account and Credit the Owner Contributions account.

When the owner repays money to personal accounts, Debit the Owner Withdrawals account and Credit the business bank account.

That's how I've been doing it but I would like to add his personal bank account to the equation so I can transfer and reconcile.  Alll the deposits and withdrawls get quite confusing as they as normally the same amounts

Whats the best way to do this to make it clean?

I gave you my best answer.

I have the policy that business is business and personal is personal.  Personal bank accounts do not belong in a business set of books.  I would never pay someone to reconcile my personal bank account requiring them to post every single personal entry to match the statement and I would never give my business bookkeeper my personal banking info.

But if you really want to do it, what is stopping you?  Are you asking how to create a new account to track the personal transactions?  What question are you trying to get an answer to?

Adding the owner's personal bank account to a company set of books opens up wealth of opportunity for error.  I would not do this.  Richard is correct; the way you were doing it is correct.  The owner should review his contributions / withdrawal GL monthly if there is a concern.
