You can also add other Quicken built-in categories to the list that you see. If you want to add another Quicken built-in category to the category list, click the Add Categories button. You'll see the following window. We've already filled this out, but let's go over it together.
The first thing you'll need to do is add a name for this category. This is the name that will appear in your category list. Next, you can add a description if you want. Decide what group this category will belong to.
The groups are on the left side of the Category List window. We've chosen Personal Income. Select the type of category. Is it income, an expense, or will this be a subcategory?

Entering Data. Transferring Money Between Accounts Transferring money between accounts simply means taking money out of one account and putting it another. One account's balance will increase while the other decreases. However, your net worth will remain the same. When you transfer money between accounts, Quicken records the transaction in the account you transferred money from as well as the account you transfer money to. To begin to transfer funds, go to the account that you want to transfer money from. In our example, we're going to transfer money from checking and into savings. When you see the account register for the account you want to transfer money from, click the Account Actions button on the right hand side of the screen, directly above the account register. It looks like this: Select Transfer Money from the drop down menu. You'll then see this dialogue box.
As you can see, we've already filled in the fields. Let's review them. Þ The first thing Quicken asks you is where you want to Transfer Money From. We've selected our checking account. Þ Next, you have to specify what account you want to transfer money into in the To Account Field. We've chosen savings.
Þ Put today's date in the Date field. Þ Enter the amount in the Amount field.
As you can see in the next snapshot, our checking account register shows the transfer from checking and into savings. At first glance, it may sound like voiding and deleting transactions are the same thing, but they're not. Whenever you delete a transaction, you erase it from your account register completely. It's no longer there. You can't see it. And you can never get it back. When you void a transaction; however, the transaction still shows in your account register, but it doesn't affect the balance in that account. It's there for looks only, so to speak, as a reminder that the transaction existed and you voided it. This is helpful for voided checks, etc.
To void a transaction, select the transaction you want to void. Press Cntrl+click if you want to void more than one. Then, press the Edit button and select Void Transaction(s) as shown in the next snapshot.
Find, Find and Replace Transactions Do you need to find a transaction from six months ago, but don't want to spend hours sifting through account registers? The good news is that you don't have to.

' Quicken will pull up all transactions that begin with the word 'Joe' including Joel, Joelene, etc. You get the picture. If you want Quicken to search from the most recent transaction backward, make sure the Search Backwards box is checked. If it's not checked, Quicken will start its search from the beginning of your account register. Now, click Find or Find All.
If you click Find, Quicken will find one match at a time. Find All, however, will prompt Quicken to reveal all matches that it finds. We're going to click Find All.

You can also use the Global Search Box located to the right of the Tool Bar to locate transactions. And, of course, you're free to sift through endless account registers if you want.

Go to the Menu bar. Go to EditFind & Replace/Find/Replace.
Just like when we used Find, specify the fields you want to search, the type of matches you want returned, and the search terms you want to use. Click Find All. Now, select the results that contain information that you want to replace. If you want to select all results, click the Mark All button. After you do that, you're ready to replace the information. In the Replace Selected Fields With section at the bottom of this window, specify what you field you want to replace as well as what you want to replace it with. Click the Replace button. If we were replacing the 'vacation' tag with 'Cancun' we would have searched for 'vacation' tags. Next, we would have selected the results. The next thing we would have done is selected 'tag' in the replace field and typed Cancun in the With field, then clicked Replace.
In the Type section, select if it's a bill or payment, income or deposit, or a transfer. Next, go to the Who section and enter information about this payment.
Specify who it will be paid to if it's a bill. If it's income, specify who the money will be received from. Include the amount. You can add a fixed or variable amount. Enter the date the payment will be received or made, as well as how often. You can also specify an end date if the payments will end after a certain amount of time.
