Congratulations on the promotion, Martin. Do you plan to solicit further
discussion from the community on the design of the multiple dates
functionality before diving into that? I feel like it is critical and
there are some nuances around edge cases that could easily be missed,
especially since they do not affect your personal use case much.
Specifically, the asymmetry around checks. Without extensive experience,
it seems that a structure somewhat like this with the Zerosum plugin would
work best:
Assets:US:ZerosumPendingDeposits
Assets:US:Checking:GloboBank:Checking1234
Assets:US:Checking:GloboBank:Checking1234:Cleared
Assets:US:Checking:GloboBank:Checking1234:ZerosumPendingWithdrawals
Assets:US:Checking:PottersvilleCU:Checking5678
Assets:US:Checking:PottersvilleCU:Checking5678:Cleared
Assets:US:Checking:PottersvilleCU:Checking5678:ZerosumPendingWithdrawals
Here the parent accounts ("Checking1234" and "Checking5678") represent the
funds which are safely available to spend. Martin Michlmayr seems to have
worked pretty extensively on this problem. There is a related issue of
using Accounts Payable / Accounts Receivable to consider (and how to enter
the AP/AR transactions: I am thinking of inserting scheduled transactions
by a cron job), but I'm not sure right now if that is really related to
multiple dates or not.
Thanks for giving us such an excellent program!
