Yes.  Deposits are for when positive values denote a Debit to that account.

Withdrawal is when positive values denote a Credit to the account.

Debit accounts are:  Assets and Expenses

Credit accounts are:  Liabilities, Equity, and Income

So, if you pick the wrong one, you will find all your transactions being
reversed!
