Cant link new Asset account to a new Liability account in Reckon Accounts Personal

Legacy KB ID: 3988

Question

Why can’t I link my new asset account to a liability account when I’m setting it up?

Answer

You cannot link an asset account to a liability account when you are setting up the account.  But you can do the reverse – link a new liability account to a new asset account when you are setting it up. 

 

Workaround 1

Create the Asset account and the Liability Account.  Then edit the Asset account to link it to the Liability account:

  1. On the top menu line select Tools > Account List > Property & Debts Accounts;
  2. Right click your asset account and select Edit;
  3. In the Linked Liability Account box click the dropdown menu arrow and select your Liability Account;
  4. Click OK to save;

 

Workaround 2

Create the Liability account first.  At the end of the setup you will have an option to link it to an asset account.  You can create the asset account in that step.
