Hi there, PatriciaP128.

Thanks for reaching out here in the Community. I'm happy to point you in the right direction regarding your journal entry in QuickBooks Desktop.

In this type of situation I recommend reaching out to your accountant for the best advice moving forward. They'll be able to tell you which accounts to adjust to get the correct balance based on your unique business setup and workflows. If you don't currently have an accountant you can find one in your area specifically trained in QuickBooks by searching here: Find a ProAdvisor

In the meantime, the following article provides additional info about creating journal entries in QuickBooks Desktop.

Please feel free to reach back out in the comments below if you have any other questions. I'll be here to help in any way that I can.

What you're seeing is correct unless the donor restrictions have been lifted.  Simply transferring funds from a checking account to an MMA does not affect your Temp Restricted Net Assets.  The funds are only reclassified from Temp Restricted Net Assets Capital Campaign to revenue when the donor restrictions have been lifted.

Just an FYI - transferring funds from two accounts is best done with a Transfer (Banking > Transfer Funds).  That creates a journal entry (JE) behind the scenes that debits the MMA account and credits the checking account.  JEs are a last resort in QB, and 99.5% of transactions can be entered without them.      

Thanks everyone! I have since figured out how to fix this issue. Have a blessed day!
