Referring to the excellent post here -
https://groups.google.com/forum/#!msg/ledger-cli/hkCNoR4-Mjw/p-kNVAmPpngJ
What comes to mind in this situation is something like this:-
2016-01-01 * "Went out for a meal with friends"
Expenses:Dining 25 USD
Liabilities:CreditCards:AMEX 100 USD
Liabilities:Loans:FriendA 35 USD
Liabilities:Loans:FriendB 40 USD
Here there's subaccounts for the amounts that I'm paying for (and which my
friends will be repaying to me, probably in a bank transfer at some point
in time). A short term loan of sorts.
Makes sense to me for posting-level payees here, as if this is at all
common then the number of subaccounts will be substantial. Probably a bit
messy, especially since I don't think I'd remember to close those
subaccounts (besides, I may see him/her for dinner again in a few years
time!)
Any suggestions?
