As suggested in a prior post, I switched my credit card account back to account balances properly. Go figure. I'm not sure I'm brave enough to see what happens if I switch back to the advanced register. |

As you make a payment to the credit card account, the balance should go lower. What you probably should do is go to the account details, and change the opening balance to a positive number if you owed money initially. |

| Credit card payment Why is my credit card payment, which is properly shown in the "credit" column, being added to the total balance, rather than being subtracted? And, come to think of it, my running balance, instead of showing a gradually increasing negative (shown in red) balance, is actually a gradually increasing postive balance. So my statement balance of -2,000 or so is shown as 2,000 in black, which then doubled when I made my payment. |
