Hi,

You need to create a new account code for the loan account at settings > codes > add - type is "other liabilities." Director's loan accounts, and any to the loan account which you will use like a bank account to pay off bills from and received invoices into should be entered using money > banking > new bank account.

Enter money received From: Creditor's name Account Code: Loan Account.
