Thanks.

Using "entry" may be causing confusion.. Let's work in reverse:

a) Writing check to county ----- That transaction has a debit of "real estate tax" (expense) and credit "checking account" (asset)

b) Transferring from savings to checking -- That transaction has a debit of "checking account" and a credit of "savings account"

Now let's discuss this other tracking you want to do, making sure you have enough transferred. WHERE did you have that amount recorded (in what account) and how did it get there? Do not confuse "budget" with "actual". The transactions described in "a" and "b" are actuals.
