Payment for two separate companies received in one check from customer

Hi there,

I have tried reading through the posts and while there is a similar question posted, I am having trouble understanding the direction on how to proceed.  Looking for guidance on how to handle this situation:

 

Customer paid $10,000 in a single check to General Contracting (QB Acct 1).

$3,000 belongs to General Contracting (GC)

$7,000 belongs to Lawncare (LC - QB Acct 2)

 

I paid the open invoices in GC with the appropriate amounts.  How do I account for and enter the remaining $7000 that I will need to deposit, and later transfer, that belongs to LC?

 

Thank you!

Melissa
