I looked through some threats I could find, but I didn't find any (automatic) solution to this problem, actually.
- the plugin posted in my initial posting doesn't work - https://github.com/hoostus/beancount-asset-transfer-plugin doesn't work (only supports LIFO and has errors) I guess, I found your emacs plugin solution, but as I don't know or use emacs, I can't use it. I guessing it does (semi-automated): - check bean-doctor - take the lots - convert them to postings - replace the original txn While this works, and I tried something like this manually, this has one huge disadvantage for me: It replaces a "simple" 2021-01-10 * "" "Transfer LOT" #transfer Assets:Broker:LOT -1.25 LOT {} Assets:Storage:LOT with a hard coded lot 2021-01-10 * "" "Transfer LOT" #transfer Assets:Broker:LOT -1.25 LOT {600 USD, 2021-01-08} Assets:Storage:LOT 1.25 LOT {600 USD, 2021-01-08} I'm trying to import dozens to hundreds of transactions from different sources. Therefore, I can't/want to replace the reductions with hard coded lots, as there might be other lots coming in later that have to be used. (Just throwing in all txns doesn't really work, too, as they are sorted by account, then by date. So, I wouldn't know if I'm skipping a txn. I tried to use bean-report print, but it erases txns with errors, which isn't helping.) I'm lost at this point. [email protected] schrieb am Samstag, 12. November 2022 um 17:34:19 UTC+1: > Yes.
