Question About Deposit Splits

[William Colls]

Not sure that I understand your problem. The transactions should be some 
thing like:

At various dates & Times you receive and record individual Cheques:

	Account					Debit		Credit
#1997	Income:Individual Contributions				350.00
	Assets:Undeposited Funds		350.00

#2138	Income:Individual Contributions				1000.00
	Assets:Undeposited Funds		1000.00

#1997	Income:Individual Contributions				500.00
	Assets:Undeposited Funds		500.00


Then you go the bank, and make a deposit. The deposit slip will look 
something like this in your accounts: (this is a split transaction)

	Assets:Undeposited Funds				350.00	
	Assets:Undeposited Funds				1000.00
	Assets:Undeposited Funds				500.00
	Assets:Bank account			1850.00

Also remember that income accounts have normally have a credit balance.

I know you believe you understand what you think I said, but I am not 
sure that you realize that what you heard was not what I meant.
