Derek,
Thanks for this. I have now had a play with my set-up (or rather a
copy of it) and see that I need to change my work flow.
I think I'm going to work on that and then close the books at the end
of the season and start afresh in the new season with what I hope will
be a better set-up.

David,
You are doing it all wrong.
You have two choices: Use Business Features or Not.
If you choose NOT to use the business features, then create a set of ASSET
accounts of the form you have, one account for each member. If you are
NOT using the business features, then you MUST NOT use A/R an
Hmm.. That stinks.
Perhaps an export, delete the A/R types, create Asset type accounts, then
re-import? Since the transactions would have the same account name, that might
work. I think you get to map them anyway in the importer.
Other than that, it looks like you have quite a lot of work ahead
Thanks. Unfortunately I can't move transactions to an account that is

transactions to. If I change the type AR, it appears, but then once I
have moved the transactions, I c

Simply select the proper account
Ah, yes, you are correct. The accounts I can see are assets and the
other are A/R. The problem I now have is that I don't seem to be able

created as A/R. Looks I might have to create new accounts and migrate
each transaction acros

When I’ve had issues in the past with accounts not showing up in the Business
Features like this, it was due to their type not being correct.
They should all be of type Asset, *not* type Accounts Receivable. (but you can
certainly make them children of A/R or better yet, create an ‘Other A/R’
