  • If you plan to track credit card purchases using a specific Accounting Plus account, the credit card accounts must be liability accounts.
  • If you plan to use an undeposited funds account to store all your daily receipts so that you can enter a single deposit at your bank, the undeposited funds account must be an asset account.
