with the following minimal example i get an error on balancing the parent
account:
2000-01-01 open Assets:Parent CHF
2000-01-01 open Assets:Parent:Child CHF
2000-01-01 open Equity:Opening-Balance CHF
2000-01-01 open Expenses:Expenses CHF
;get random amounts on the accounts
2010-01-01 * "initialize"
Assets:Parent:Child 20 CHF
Assets:Parent 1 CHF
Equity:Opening-Balance
; pad child and parent
2010-01-02 pad Assets:Parent:Child Expenses:Expenses
2010-01-03 balance Assets:Parent:Child 0 CHF
2010-01-04 pad Assets:Parent Expenses:Expenses
2010-01-05 balance Assets:Parent 0 CHF
$ bean-check testpad.bean
>testpad.bean:17: Balance failed for 'Assets:Parent': expected 0 CHF
!= accumulated -20 CHF (20 too little)
>
> 2010-01-05 balance Assets:Parent 0 CHF
I would have expected the parent account to be padded to zero with no error.
removing the pad / balance of the child makes the parent balance correctly.
I do not understand, why does the balancing of the parent account fail?
How would I pad both accounts correctly?
Thanks!
