1010 Checking

The default ledger account paired with your primary business checking account. Most money in and out passes through it.

In Solo Superstars

Your first bank account pairs with this code. Every categorized transaction on that account is one side of an entry here; the other side is the category you chose.

Example

A $1,164 Stripe payout lands: debit 1010 Checking 1,164, credit 1310 Stripe Clearing 1,164.

Codes shown are the defaults a new workspace starts with. Yours may be renamed or renumbered — check Accounting › Chart of accounts. See the full default chart.
