Cash Flow Report

Question

Hi Everyone...I have probably a simple question that I can not figure out.

On my Cash Flow Report my "Credit Card Payment" is listed under "Inflows" and also "Outflows"?

There must be some setting that I need to change for my Credit Cards, but I can't find it.

Any help would be appreciated and thanks in advance.

Yes...I think I see what you are asking.
 1) Under the header of "Banking" on the left side I have our checking account which updates when I dialup. And when I make a payment on a credit card it comes in as a negative.
 2) Under the header of "Credit Card" on the left side I have our credit cards listed. When I dialup and bring in all the transactions they do post as a positive in those accounts. Which naturally decreases and adjusts my overall balance to reflect what their websites show we still owe.
 So long story short...."Yes" it is a negative pulled into Checking and a positive when it's pulled into the Credit Card accounts.....If that makes any sense.

Unfortunately I can't answer that question. I only use Quicken for tracking our home income/expenses and when I saw the new Cash Flow report it reminded me of years ago when I used a Windows version. With that version I didn't have it dial into all our accounts and grab the information. So maybe I have something setup wrong or I am handling the transactions wrong when they are downloaded.

I am sorry I can't speak more logically or more in depth regarding accounting terminology, but I am just a basic home user.
