ANSWER ID:1725

To transfer funds between accounts, you first create a transfer account, then use this account to transfer the funds. Using a transfer account, specifically created for this purpose, will avoid affecting your cash-flow report which may occur if you do a cashbook entry straight between accounts.

 

1. Create a transfer account
  1. Go to the Maintenance command centre and click Maintain Chart of Accounts.

  2. Press F4 on your keyboard to create a new account.
