Hello. I am setting up a new business. There are no receipts/payments/transfers/JEs and no starting balances. The following shows up in the “Transactions” page:

Acquisition costs and Depreciation have yet to be added for the fixed assets entered.  
Are these entries supposed to be in the transactions view?

Without knowing your chart of accounts, it is impossible to say with certainty. But I would say this looks normal because you have created 4 assets. Therefore, the data structure has to be set up. Zero value entries are still entries. Think of these as opening balances in all the related subsidiary ledgers.

Look like you check starting balance with zero value

Try Unchecking the starting balance. It should not appear in transactions
