Uncategorized Expense

When I am manually entering checks and accidently miss entering an account name for a dollar amount I used to get a warning when I would try to save the check saying I had to add an expense account, now QuickBooks just puts it to uncategorized expenses. Is there a way to make it go back to giving me the warning? I do not like it coding to uncategorized as I them miss the expenses until I have already printed the reports. I do not have the automatic bank feeds set up, I manually enter all checks and deposits.

Yes. Change the preference back to require accounts.

 

Start on the QB Menu:

Edit | Preferences | Accounting | Company Preferences | Require Accounts.
