Transfers

Is there a way to record a transfer so it doesn't show up as an expense?

Where is it showing as an expense? Are you using Windows or Mac? A transfer is not income or expense. You either enter the other account in the Transfer column or in the Category with square brackets like [Savings Acct].

In a QWin report, click on the gear at the top right then on the Advanced tab, where there is a setting for transfers.

• Include all includes all transfers
• Exclude all excludes all transfers
• Exclude self transfers includes all transfers except those to the same account, like Opening Balance and balance adjustments
• Exclude internal (probably what you want) excludes self transfers and transfers to and from accounts that are not included in the report.

If you need finer control over which accounts are included, you can use the above in combination with selecting individual accounts to include on the Categories tab.

In QWin there is no Transfer column in a register and you can't assign a Category to a transfer. You can, however, assign a tax line item or a Tag.

If you want to assign a Category to money transferred between accounts, you would have to record it as 2 separate transactions, one in each account.
