Reports doubling designated restriction when released

[Aslanspam]

When I pay an invoice with funds that were designated for that purpose, I use the 01-1110 Checking account to CREDIT the amount, then the

01-4216 Mission account to DEBIT the amount, then select Release Restricted Funds and it automatically selects 01-4816 Mission account to DEBIT and 01-4999 Released from restriction account to CREDIT.

When I generate a report it doubles the dollar amount posted. I'm trying to generate a simple report to show the missions committee funds received and funds disbursed.

Thank you!

Why are you even touching the Income account 4216?? When paying bills, you should ALWAYS DEBIT an expense account, and release the funds from the Maintain Invoices screen.

You don't touch any income account manually, the system will enter the proper accounts when you click that Release button, and select the restricted account.

That makes sense -- thank you, Neil.
