You can add the account by going to Accounting > Fund Accounting > Setup. Choose Maintain Chart of Accounts. Click Add and follow the onscreen prompts to add a Detail/Asset account.

To add the balance, enter a transaction in Accounting > Fund Accounting > Enter Transactions. Date it January 1, 2022 and accounting month January 2022. The new checking account will be debited. The account to credit will be determined by where the money is coming from.

No, you wouldn't debit Unrestricted Net Assets necessarily. Where are the funds coming from? Existing Checking account, Savings ???
