I keep records for a 6-member LLC. When I deposit a check and categorize it as "Capital Contribution-Member X", the amount is subtracted from that person's capital account. So, should equity accounts/capital account accounts show as negative amounts/credits?

Since Quicken has no equity/capital accounts available for overt manipulation - it's a "personal" financial accounting system - you're ill-advised to use Quicken in this case.Apparently you're using Other Liability Accounts as a stand-in for individual partner's capital accounts. You're wrong that depositing a check subtracts from the individual's "capital" Account, it adds to it. Quicken does show liability Accounts as negative numbers. A contribution to a "capital" Account is the "credit" that accompanies the "debit" to the checking Account.0
