Workflow
工作流程
- Ask the user to define their entities and how they are separated (separate bank accounts, category prefixes, tags, or description patterns).
- For each entity, use with the appropriate filter:
transaction_search- By account: search transactions from the specific bank account
- By tag/prefix: search for transactions tagged or prefixed with the entity name (e.g., "LLC1:" or "rental:")
- Use for each entity over the same period.
spending_summary - Generate per-entity P&L summaries plus a consolidated view:

═══════════════════════════════════════════════════════- Flag any inter-entity transfers (payments between your own accounts/entities) and exclude them from revenue and expense totals to avoid double-counting.
- Use to create separate CSV files per entity for tax preparation.
export_transactions - Alert on commingling: flag personal expenses in business accounts or business expenses in personal accounts.
- 要求用户定义其实体以及实体的区分方式(独立银行账户、类别前缀、标签或描述模式)。
- 针对每个实体,使用并应用相应筛选条件:
transaction_search- 按账户:搜索来自特定银行账户的交易
- 按标签/前缀:搜索带有实体名称标签或前缀的交易(例如"LLC1:"或"rental:")
- 针对同一时间段,为每个实体生成。
spending_summary - 生成各实体的损益汇总以及合并视图:

Without Wilson
未使用Wilson的情况
- If each entity has a separate bank account (recommended), export each account's transactions as a separate CSV file.
- If entities share a bank account (not recommended but common), export all transactions and add an "Entity" column. Tag each transaction manually.
- Create separate spreadsheet tabs per entity. For each: pivot by category, sum income and expenses.
- For the consolidated view, create a summary tab that references each entity tab: .
=EntityA!TotalRevenue + EntityB!TotalRevenue - Track inter-entity transfers: search for transfers between your accounts. Mark these as "Transfer" category and exclude from income/expense totals.
- For tax filing, each entity files separately. LLCs file Schedule C (single-member) or Form 1065 (multi-member). S-corps file Form 1120-S. Keep transaction exports separated by EIN.
- Use separate QuickBooks files or Xero organizations per entity. QBO allows up to 25 companies per subscription.
- 如果每个实体都有独立的银行账户(推荐做法),将每个账户的交易导出为单独的CSV文件。
- 如果实体共享银行账户(不推荐但常见),导出所有交易并添加“实体”列,手动标记每笔交易。
- 为每个实体创建单独的电子表格标签。针对每个标签:按类别进行透视,汇总收入和支出。
- 对于合并视图,创建一个汇总标签,引用每个实体标签的数据:。
=EntityA!TotalRevenue + EntityB!TotalRevenue - 跟踪实体间转账:搜索自有账户间的转账,将其标记为“转账”类别,并从收入/支出总额中排除。
- 报税时,每个实体单独申报。LLC申报Schedule C(单一成员)或Form 1065(多个成员)。S型公司申报Form 1120-S。按EIN分别保存交易导出文件。
- 为每个实体使用单独的QuickBooks文件或Xero组织。QBO每个订阅最多支持25家公司。
Important Notes
重要说明
- Separate bank accounts per entity is strongly recommended. Commingling funds can pierce the corporate veil and remove liability protection.
- Inter-entity transactions (loans, payments, shared expenses) must be tracked carefully. They are not income or expenses — they are transfers.
- If one entity pays a shared expense (e.g., office rent), split it proportionally and record an inter-entity receivable/payable.
- Each entity should have its own EIN. Do not use one EIN for multiple entities.
- Consult a CPA for multi-entity tax strategy. Entity structure (LLC, S-corp, C-corp) significantly affects tax liability.
- 强烈建议为每个实体设立单独的银行账户。资金混同可能刺破corporate veil,从而失去责任保护。
- 必须仔细跟踪实体间交易(贷款、付款、共享支出)。这些不属于收入或支出,而是转账。
- 如果一个实体支付了共享支出(例如办公室租金),应按比例拆分并记录实体间应收/应付款项。
- 每个实体应拥有独立的EIN。请勿为多个实体使用同一个EIN。
- 请咨询CPA以获取多实体税务策略。实体结构(LLC、S型公司、C型公司)对税务责任有重大影响。
