QuickBooks Self-Employed does not offer a built-in feature to create a cash account like in QuickBooks Online, office329.

 

Alternatively, you can manually record cash transactions to maintain a full record of your transactions.

 

Here’s how: 

 

  1. Log in to your QuickBooks Self-Employed account.
  2. Go to the Transactions tab.
  3. Click on Add Transaction.
  4. Choose either the Income or Expense category depending on the type of transaction.
  5. Enter the necessary details, such as the amount and date.
  6. Select Cash as the payment method.
  7. Save the entry.
