I don't see the checking account I want to use

If the account you want to use doesn't appear in the Select from List window, you may not have added it to your Accounts List, or it may not have been assigned checking or credit card privileges. To create a new account with these privileges, see Creating accounts; in step 1, be sure to indicate that this will be a checking or credit card account.

If the account exists already, you may be able to give it checking or credit card privileges. Existing asset accounts can be given checking privileges; liability accounts can be given credit card privileges. Begin by opening the Accounts List window. Highlight the account you want and click Edit. For asset accounts, mark the Detail Checking Account (Postable) option. For liability accounts, mark the Detail Credit Card Account (Postable) option.

Once you've made these changes, the account will appear in Select From Lists in transaction entry windows.
