When using a manually tracked account (such as a Cash account), users can currently only adjust the overall account balance. There is no way to create individual transaction records that show up in the transaction history for that account.

Users want to be able to log individual cash spending entries – for example, recording a $20 grocery purchase – so they have a visible, itemized record of where their money went. This is especially important for cash spending, which is otherwise invisible in spending reports and budgets.

The requested feature would allow users to add manual transactions (with merchant name, amount, date, and category) directly to a manual account, so that balance changes are reflected as real transaction history rather than a single balance adjustment.
