When I perform an Easy Action to record an Income Event using the Fund/Trust Distribution field it uses the _CapGnDst category.

Legacy KB ID: 3052

Question

How do I change the category that CashBook automatically applies when I record a Fund/Trust Distribution via the Easy actions menu?

Answer

When you use Easy Actions to record a Fund/Trust Distribution CashBook will record a transaction of type CGLong, which is assigned to the _CapGnDst category. There is no way to edit the Fund/Trust field to change which action it uses, so to use a different category you will need to enter the transaction a different way.

1) Enter the Income Event as normal via Easy Actions.
2) Instead of putting the amount in the Fund/Trust Distribution field use the Miscellaneous field.
3) Select the category you want to use in the 'Category For Miscellaneous' field.
