I don't understand what you mean.
What I mean, is that *pad *statement causes beancount to insert a padding
transaction
Such code
2024-01-01 * "Initial balance"
Assets:Bank 1000 EUR
Equity:StartingBalance
2024-01-09 pad Assets:Bank Expenses:Misc
2024-01-10 balance Assets:Bank 500 EUR
*Gets converted to such code*
2024-01-01 * "Initial balance" Assets:Bank 1000 EUR Equity:StartingBalance
-1000 EUR 2024-01-09 open Expenses:Misc 2024-01-09 pad Assets:Bank
Expenses:Misc 2024-01-09 P "(Padding inserted for Balance of 500 EUR for
difference -500 EUR)" Assets:Bank -500 EUR Expenses:Misc 500 EUR 2024-01-10
balance Assets:Bank 500 EUR
It all works as designed, but I thought that it conflicts a bit with the
documentation
<https://docs.google.com/document/d/1QftxNvQPdH-MikMBHupftU6F4IsNZP5FlFh1LCbVgk8/edit#heading=h.qs8b7mcsjj82>
.
However now, having read this one again, I think, that the *Round-Tripping
guarantee* in the documentation
<https://docs.google.com/document/d/1QftxNvQPdH-MikMBHupftU6F4IsNZP5FlFh1LCbVgk8/edit#heading=h.qs8b7mcsjj82>is
applicable to a single transaction, not to the whole ledger, and then it is
fine
