Re: [GNC] Deposit\Withdraw on one account, Increase\Decrease on others. Why?
Oh wow. It was right in front of me the whole time! I guess my brain assumed that since it was next to the chart of accounts that it had something to do with that.

I guess my question then is how does gnucash know an account is a bank account vs a generic asset account? The accounts I'm referring to are indeed bank accounts so I'd want to have that reflected in gnucash, if possible. I don't recall specifying that one of them is a bank account and the rest are generic asset accounts.. You're right, though, I could also just use the standard headings and get used to it :) Thanks --dave -- Sent from: http://gnucash.1415818.n4.nabble.com/GnuCash-User-f1415819.html ___ gnucash-user mailing list gnucash-user@gnucash.org To update your subscription preferences or to unsubscribe: https://lists.gnucash.org/mailman/listinfo/gnucash-user If you are using Nabble or Gmane, please see https://wiki.gnucash.org/wiki/Mailing_Lists for more information. - Please remember to CC this list on all your replies.

[GNC] Deposit\Withdraw on one account, Increase\Decrease on others. Why?
Hi all, I'm a pretty new user to gnucash and am getting settled in. I've searched the list for the answer to this. I found similar questions but nothing that lead me to an answer. I've noticed that one of my asset accounts has deposit\withdraw columns while my other asset accounts have increase\decrease columns. I can't figure out why this is and where I might changed it so that all the asset accounts have the deposit\withdrawl nomenclature. The "Use formal accounting" names setting changes everything to debit\credit, so that's not it. Thanks for all your help and for supporting this great project! --dave -- Sent from: http://gnucash.1415818.n4.nabble.com/GnuCash-User-f1415819.html ___ gnucash-user mailing list gnucash-user@gnucash.org To update your subscription preferences or to unsubscribe: https://lists.gnucash.org/mailman/listinfo/gnucash-user If you are using Nabble or Gmane, please see https://wiki.gnucash.org/wiki/Mailing_Lists for more information. - Please remember to CC this list on all your replies.
