I'll just chip in, I have Q2007 and I see when I transfer money to savings
it shows as a debit but NOT as a credit, so the 'what's left' is
meaningless.
Another Intuit bungle?

Or another user misunderstanding?

It's impossible to make heads or tails out of your post.

Here's a suggestion.

Explain in detail what you did. Explain in detail what you

(including everyplace you looked).
