Hi Chris/GNUCash users, 

GnuCash is free/open source software, so please understand that and that
this is a volunteer effort. 

Feel free to donate and encourage others to do so so that the software
is maintained and possibly even improved -
https://www.gnucash.org/donate.phtml 

With that said, some basics: 

What operating system are you using? 

What version of GNUCash are you using? The current version is 5.10 -

Until someone else spends their time to answer your questions, GNUCash
has several documentation resources -
https://gnucash.org/docs/v5/C/gnucash-manual//index.html &
https://wiki.gnucash.org/wiki/GnuCash will help you understand some
accounting basics and how they apply to GNUCash, but there is a lot of
information there!
