How to add a transaction where I paid or received cash
Sold a car for $1,800 in cash. Did not deposit the money. Instead, I have been using it for expenses. For example, I paid the auto service shop $60 for some work on my car. Since I keep track of auto expenses, I would like both the sale of the old car and the work done on my new car in Quicken.
I am creative. I could enter the cash as a deposit in checking then a withdrawal. I could do the opposite with the expense. Create a bogus deposit to Other Income, then a payment out of checking for Car Repair.
Do you have a better way?
Same thing could be done for non-cash charitable contributions where I gave clothing, TV, yard tools to charity and valued the donation at say $100.
