How can I make it so that no transactions are posted to a parent account? I only want transactions to be posted to the lowest level sub-account.
We recently had transactions posted to "Bank Accounts" account which is a parent account rather than to the specific bank sub account. I would love to be able to turn off the ability to post to the parent account.
Solved! Go to Solution.
I wish you could but you can not restrict a parent account in any way.
All you can do is designate the correct account, either when making a deposit/withdrawal or when you download banking

Thank you!
Sure would be nice if they considered adding this feature.

I also have wished to disable GL Parent Account posting for a long time! Please implement this feature! I want to use Parent Accounts solely as an organization tool and header in our Chart of Accounts, not an active GL account to use for transactional purposes. Thank you!
