I don’t know the “best practice” for this, but I would mark the transfer into my account as income, maybe make a new category of Retirement Income or Income from Savings, and then mark the transfer out of your account as transfer. Marking it as a transfer does reduce the balance, but not as expense, and you would expense as you spend it. I am sure there are other ways of doing this, and probably many users who could also chime in on how they handle transfers like that.
