Page History
Every Quicken account has a register where you can download or manually enter transactions for that account. A transaction is any item that affects the balance in your account, such as purchase, credit, debit or charge.
When you add a new account, Quicken creates a transaction register for that account.
All Quicken accounts have registers. Although the types of transactions vary from register to register, the basic entry techniques are the same whether you are using the register for a bank, cash, credit card, asset, or liability account.
