Starting from the source account is good practice no matter the type of 
transaction.

Since funds in double-entry have to 'come from somewhere' and 'go to 
somewhere', by always entering the transaction in the source account, 
you are always choosing the destination(s).

Life is much less confusing that way. (yes, yes, before anyone else 
chimes in, I know there are sometimes complicated transactions with 
multiple sources...)

Regards,
Adrien
