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. When you add a new account, Quicken creates a transaction register for that account. A transaction is any item that affects the balance in your account, such as purchase, credit, debit, or charge. Every Quicken account has a register where you can download or manually enter transactions for that account.
