"Transfer" and "Credit Card Payment" work mostly the same, just "Credit Card
Payment" delays when the user figures out how this is all supposed to work.

In the account details for the checking account and the credit card
account, be sure that "Include this account in the budget planner"
is checked.

You might do Customize-> Reset of the report if it may have been
customized.

When you pay the bill, it is a category "transfer" from your account
checking to account First USA.

My credit card accounts are downloaded directly from my
financial institutions, so each transaction is entered in
the account register and assigned a category. When I pay
my monthly bills, I enter the credit card information in
my checking account register and in the payee section I
enter First USA Credit Card and in the Category Section,
I enter Credit Card Payment: First USA.

When I try to analyze my spending, the reports I run show
the amount of the credit card payment from my checking
account as income. Is this right? I am having the hardest
time getting all my categories accurately assigned and
tracking! I also have indicated that all the transactions
in the Charity category should be assigned to Schedule A
for tax purposes, but those that are paid by credit card
don't show up on my tax planner. I'm soooo confused. Can
anyone help? I would love to take a class, but none I
haven't found any in my area. (I live in the northwest
suburbs of Chicago.)

HELP ANYONE!!!

I have very similar problems. I have credit cards
automatically downloading into money. I then make my
online payments from my checking account. How should I
have my Credit cards assigned on the debit end and also
on the credit end. What category should I use when paying
them through the checking account and what category
should I use when registering them in the credit card
statement? Thanks for any help....
