Transfers Between Checking and Savings

[Mark Phillips]

Frank,

I took a look at the cash flow report, and it does not seem to be as
intuitive as the income statement. Perhaps I had the wrong account - I just
selected the two asset account, checking and savings. Gnucash then included
the equity opening balances, which was really confusing.

Thanks for your help!

Mark
