Print register only for selected dates + column for eft/deposits (Q Mac)

alainr

I just updated from Quicken 2007 to 2020 on my mac. How do i print the register for only selected dates?
I used to be able to enter deposit and it automatically entered the amount as a deposit--can i do that in 2020? I liked having eft/atm categories.

I think I understand your second question. You want to enter "DEPOSIT" somewhere and have the amount show up as positive, not negative?

As John mentioned, you can notate an entry is a deposit in the Action column. But in QMac, that does not affect the amount entry. But the simple solution is to just hit the plus sign (+) prior to typing your number in the Amount column. This will make it positive.

Another alternative is to turn off the Amount column and turn on the Deposit and Payment columns. (Note names of these columns vary by account type.) Then any amount you enter in the Deposit column is a credit (increase balance) and any amount you enter in the Payment column is a debit (decrease balance).

Hi, alainr:

You are asking multiple questions:

1) You can print any register (or a combination of registers as selected in the sidebar) via File:Print. You can select transactions (for a date range), or you can use the register Filters (at top) to set dates. The best way to learn this is to try your various options. There is a lot of flexibility here.

2) I don't quite follow you on your second question, but the "Action" column (you can choose to show it) is where you now enter details like "EFT" or "ATM." You use this instead of the check number column.
