Product: The Sims 4
Platform: PC
Which language are you playing the game in? English
How often does the bug occur? Every time
What is your current game version number? 1.106.148.
What expansions, game packs, and stuff packs do you have installed? Everything released
Steps: How can we find the bug ourselves? 1. Use a Sim that lives in an R-rental but doesn't own any R-Rentals. 2. Buy a business 3. Transfer money from household to business
What happens when the bug occurs? The household funds stay the same or nothing is transferred at all
What do you expect to see? The household funds to be reduced and business fund to become higher or the other way round.
Have you installed any customization with the game, e.g. Custom Content or Mods? Never used
Did this issue appear after a specific patch or change you made to your system? Installing the latest patch but I'm guessing this scenario was just missed when fixing this bug: https://answers.ea.com/t5/Bug-Reports/FIXED-FR-CD-DO-GTW-Households-funds-stay-same-when-transferrin...
As per patch notes, property owners now work properly. Renters however do still have the same issue as before. So Sims living in an R-Rental but NOT owning it, still don't work
I haven't tested all the business but vets and restaurants are def still broken for renters.
On my first test, the funds also broken completely. The initial transfer worked as far as that the business got money, after that it wouldn't work at all anymore. Need to test further if I can duplicate this as well.
Household funds after the transfer

I am unable to transfer my household funds to my vet clinic in the game. I don't have any game mods etc. I type in an amount to transfer (I have millions of dollars to work with) but the number just disappears when I hit confirm on the transfer and nothing happens.

When I have tried to have my sims own a restaurant, I am unable to transfer any funds to that business, with both the household funds and business funds staying the same. This means that the business funds cannot be more than 0 so I am unable to have my sims own a restaurant.

@freyams Did you install yesterday's patch ? Any mods/cc ? Is you Sim living in a residential rental ? Do they own other businesses ?
EDIT: Did some self testing and while the initial transfer worked (household funds not being reduced), nothing happened afterwards. The error corrected itself for me though so try selling the business and rebuying and see if transferring works afterwads.
This: https://answers.ea.com/t5/Bug-Reports/FR-CD-DO-GTW-Households-funds-stay-same-when-transferring-mone... is def still an issue

I have tried selling and rebuying, that did not work, as well as closing the game and reopening.
I was in a residential rental (I didn’t think that might have been the issue, so I’ll try moving them to a normal lot!)
