LeanLaw recently added the ability to direct retainer deposits that are entered into LeanLaw to QuickBooks's undeposited funds.  The default is for the deposited items to land directly into the IOLTA bank account.  Accountants and bookkeepers much prefer the use of undeposited funds.  Curious as to why? Refer to this LeanLaw article. LINK

LeanLaw advises against using the Undeposited Funds feature if you aren't familiar with depositing funds directly in QuickBooks.
