If you are the party making the deposit to a landlord on a short-term lease (short term leases are month-to-month and those less than 6 months in term):

Debit: Current Assets:Security Deposit (Maturity Date)

Credit: Bank

Same as above except it is a long-term lease:

Debit: Other Assets:Secutity Deposit (Maturity Date)

Credit: Bank

If you are the landlord receiving the deposit from a party on a short-term lease:

Credit: Current Liabilities:Security Deposit (lessee name, Maturity Date)

Debit: Non-operating bank account

Same as above on a long-term lease

Credit: Long Term Liabilities:Security Deposit (lessee name, Maturity Date)

Debit: Non-operating bank account
