If someone reimburses my LLC, do I report that as income for the LLC?

The reimbursement is passing through the LLC (we will reimburse the member who incurred the expenses).

Please expand and clarify your question.  It sounds like you are asking how to treat a reimbursement made to the LLC for expenses paid on behalf of a member on the one hand and then a reimbursement to a member for expenses paid for the LLC on the other.

 

In the case of a reimbursement to the LLC, simply record the reimbursement as a reduction of whatever expense it was recorded as and on the other side record the expense for a payment made on behalf of the LLC when the member is reimbursed.

Thanks for helping! The LLC did not pay expenses on behalf of the member. The member paid expenses personally. The LLC reimbursed the member for those expenses (I know how to deal with that part).

 

However, another concern paid the LLC back for the employee's expenses to the LLC's account.

This is typical in the case of travel expenses and such.  The employer includes those expenses when billed to the customer/client.  Some detail each expense, some include it in the billing without mention.  I would either reduce the expenditure which was reimbursed or list it as a separate line under "Reimbursements" or some such item.
