Steve/John
Was intrigued with the clever work-around to handle the taxable/non-
taxable split distribution.
Went to a test file and duplicated your entries. Checked the Tax
Schedule Report and everything reports correctly there from a tax
reporting standpoint.
However - did notice one strange result in the Projected Cash Flow
[PCF] view [I'm using QW08 Dlx]. The "IN" reports double the
distribution as income; i.e., it sees the transfer and the modified
[taxable and non-taxable] split entries but seems to be missing/
ignoring the "offset"; the "[checking acct]" split entry. Never-the-
less, in "What Left", the ending account balance is correct.
Stepping ahead a month at a time in the PCF view, the incorrect [2x]
income repeats - but the ending account balance is always correct.
Ran a Cash Flow Report [Reports > Banking > Cash Flow] and it is
correct - the taxable and non-taxable split entries report as income.
Do you see similar behavior in the PCF view?
