Hi, Dick.
This is one of the times when it might help to have a "Cash on Hand"
account. Then you could record the sell and transfer to this Cash account;
later you would record the deposit of this Cash into your savings account.
(You did say, "how do I get it out and into the checking account", but you
meant "savings account", didn't you?)
Of course, the "Cash on Hand" account can have any name you want; it will
have a balance for only a short time and then revert to zero. I have such
an account which I call "Undeposited Checks". We accountants often keep a
"Suspense" account for just such transitory items; it can be either an asset
account or a liability account, depending on the contents at any particular
time.
