Is it possible to have some added accounts configured to not show specific transactions.

    You can set up another separate data file to keep accounts separate.  Go up to File-New.  But for married you should keep all the  accounts in the same data file.   Sure you can categorize the transactions generically.

    Probably not.  You can use the filter settings at the top of the register.   Like what transactions?  Why?  Can you give an example?

    Thank you for the quick response. My spouse and I have a joint checking, savings, and visa account. However, we each have our own checking accounts for our own personal spending. The purpose of the latter is to honor a small degree of mutual independence with a personal spending. That independence includes confidentiality of each spender. We are on the honor system here. So, for these personal accounts, we would prefer that the transactions in each of them, more specifically payments, not be itemized by quicken. It would be better for these accounts if the payment transactions could be labelled generically, such as personal spending from private savings. BTW: I am new and just finished watching the first how-too videos for adding accounts and adding transactions to the quicken check registry.

    You can use tags to separate out transactions for both of you and still use the same categories.

    As in Category: Dining, Tag: Person 1.
