I operate an import business. I import mainly beers which arrive via a 40 foot container by sea.

When a container arrives in my country I have to pay for the service of the shipping agent. This same shipping agent also charges an additional €360 security deposit for the container before the container is released to me. This deposit is refunded back to me within a matter of 4 weeks after the container is returned back to them.

How do I record these types of transactions in Zoho books? 

The answer is much appreciated.
