I just noticed there is a "separate account" section. Any account there will not be shown in my total assets. I put money aside for my kids in their own banks but monitor the balances and I would not like this shown on my total assets. Thank in advance for any help

    Set up the account just like you would any other.  Then go to the Display Options tab of Account Details for that account and check the box for "Keep this account separate...." and click OK.  The account will then be moved in the side bar Accounts List to the bottom of the list under "Separate".

    To place an account in the Separate section: open the account register, press Ctrl + Shift + E, select the Display Options tab, check Keep this account separate - account will be excluded from reports and features, and select OK

    You open the account like any other account then click on the gear at the top right.

    Edit account details then click on the Display options tab. There you can mark the account Separate.
