You send money back to a trust when it needs cash — most often to pay leavers’ benefits — or to pass on investment income, proceeds of a sale, or everything at the end of a mandate.
Where: Transfers to Trust in the menu. Before you start: you can only return cash you hold for that trust. For a bank transfer, make it first and have the bank’s reference to hand.
The trustee then confirms receipt. The page has three tabs: Log transfer, Drafts and Transfer register.

If the same reference was used recently, the page asks you to Confirm duplicate reference before continuing. Check you are not logging the same transfer twice.

What happens next

The trustee checks the trust’s bank statement and confirms receipt. Follow it in the Transfer register: Receipt moves from Pending recognition to Recognised. If the trustee cannot match it, they give a reason; talk to them and correct the record.
