Not sure how to do this entry--
If you're entering a credit card transaction, VISA card CR $20, Missions books DR $20, and the Mission Funds are in Mission funds 52, would it be entered as
01-2515-000 VISA card CR $20
52-7112-000 Mission books DR $20 (don't think this entry is correct)
OR
01-2515-000 VISA card CR $20
01-7112-000 Mission books DR $20
OR when I get ready to pay the credit card bill then I transfer funds from 52 to 01?
Thank you for your insight on this--

You first entry is incorrect. You Debit and Credit have to be in the same fund.

If you want to record your Missions expense in Fund 52 (i.e. 52-7112-000), the easiest way may be to create a VISA liability, also in Fund 52:
ADD detail liability 2515-000 in Fund 52

When you make a charge on your VISA card for missions:
52-2515-000 VISA card CR $20
52-7112-000 Mission books DR $20

When you pay it off in missions:
52-1110-000 missions checking CR $20
52-2515-000 VISA card DB $20

If you want to see how much is charged on the VISA card, you can run an Account Activity across all funds:
Fund 01 to 52
Account 2515 to 2515
