If the restricted funds are in a separate bank account, especially if it 
is a deposit account, you have simple options compared to those of us 
who keep books for organizations that so not have funds segregated that 
way.

a) You can just partition the deposit account. Won't interfere with 
check reconciliation to have it partitioned.

b) You won't perceive yourself as doing any extra work since going to be 
a REAL transaction moving funds from "deposit" to "current" when paying 
ans expense that qualifies for the use of that restricted fund.
