As I noted above, with the 'Reverse Balance' preference set to Credit Accounts, a balance due on a Liability will show as positive. Negative will only display if you've overpaid. (a 'contra-balance' condition) Payments therefore would make a Liability balance more negative (away from zero).

From reading the posts on this list, I still think this is a data entry issue... It is correct that payments should lower the balance... But are charges being entered correctly? When you enter a credit card payment, it "has" to be correct, because you know it takes money away from your bank accou
