    Are you wanting to enter a dividend received or a dividend paid. The example you found is for dividends received. This example is fine for that purpose.

    But your question appears to be about dividends paid by your company to shareholders. If so, has your accountant already set up or entered entries for the declaring of the dividend and its attached franking credit? In which case you would have a balance in "Dividends Payable" in the balance sheet, so that when you physically pay out the dividend, the amount paid get debited to "Dividends Payable" and the other side to the bank account it was paid from. You would do this in "Money Out", and "Make a payment".

    Hopefully this is sufficient, but if not, please advise more details.
