How do I enter dividends paid into Accounts Hosted? Do I need to set up any new accounts?

Any help would be appreciated. Thank you

    I would just use income accounts called Dividends Franked and Dividends unfranked and post the franked credit negative amount to your income tax account or a new account called Franked credits. I prefer to make a new account for the latter for clarification for accountant

    You need to get the accounting right. Do you know the difference between a liability and income?
