Hi Martin,
Thanks for your answer. But I still can't find a solution.
The ETH account balance is 2.13226701 ETH before the 2 convert transactions.
I then deduct 1.025268+1.098605 == 2.12 from that account.
And then on the erroring transaction I try to add more ETH to the account:
Assets:Coinbase:ETH 4.81321544 ETH {339.82 GBP}
When I run bean-doctor I get an empty transaction:
Hash:bde2c9df7c3195dfa5bd9e4b68ed2261
Location: /example.beancount:31
------------ Balances before transaction
------------ Transaction
2018-04-03 * "Buy ETH"
------------ Balances after transaction
And if I try to add {443.62 GBP} to the ETH deduction of both conversions
(to specify that the conversion should deduct from the `Assets:Coinbase:ETH
2.13226701 ETH {443.62 GBP}` account) I get a 'Transaction does not
balance' error.
