    Hi Denise

     

    When you transfer the money from the cheque acc to the credit card the transaction is 

     

    CR Bank 

    DR  CC

     

    So the transaction for the payment of the credit card should just be able to be matched in your bank feeds and then the bank account and credit card reconciled

     

    So on this screen shot the first transaction looks like it is the payment to clear the credit card so the allocation will be 2-XXXX Credit card account

    The next two transactions you would allocate to your expense accounts as usual

     

    To make this clearer for you if you changed the view to the different accounts you would see which transaction applies to which bank.

     

    The payment that comes across to the credit card may take another day or two to come across and can then be reconciled by matching the cheque payment 

     

    You won't be able to match these two transactions against the payment as 

    - you aren't paying these payments you are actually paying the credit card and these transactions make up that balance.

    - you can't allocate them as they are different bank accounts

     

    Hope that clarifies for you, make sure you reconcile the account in case there are some doubled up entries

     

    Hope this is useful
