I can tell why you're unable to change the detail type of the Undeposited Funds account, userp-byrd.

 

The Undeposited Funds Account is an internal “other current asset account” created by QuickBooks. It holds funds until you are ready to deposit them. Hence, you're unable to change the detail type.

 

It serves as the default 'deposit to' accounts when you receive payments and bank deposits to complete invoicing process.

I understand the purpose of Undeposited Funds account. When I receive payments for invoices the payments go to undeposited funds. However, I am unable to select from there the items I want to deposit.  I reading some forums online, one person had same problem and was told to correct the "Detail Type" in the account set-up to Undeposited Funds.  Mine says "Current Asset" and it won't allow me to change that. Once that was corrected for her, she was able to make deposits from her undeposited funds account.

Something’s not quite right
You cannot change the detail type of an account to "Undeposited Funds" or change an "Undeposited Funds" account to another detail type.
 
The above is what I see when I try to change the "Detail Type" in the Undeposited Funds account set-up.
