Phew! What a thorough education that y'all are giving me, on something I thought was *VERY* simple. IMHO I think the best thing would be to make budgeting as flexible as possible (e.g. in this case, allow budgeting of more than just I/E) and then *document the heck out of the different standard usages / methodologies (e.g. business best practices vs. standard home user)*.
You'd be invoking the old unix standby of giving 'em enough rope to hang themselves with, and then teaching them through "man pages" (ca. 1980's) / "html docs" (ca. 1990's) / "cms's" (ca. 2000's) / "ODF's" (forever)... dates stretched via comic license. Also, I really do enjoy the free Finances 101 lessons I get on this list. It gives me a new appreciation (no pun intended) of the $1 car I "bought" some time ago, as well as all the pain I go through to try to budget my personal finances. _Thank you_ Dan W. _______________________________________________ gnucash-devel mailing list [email protected] https://lists.gnucash.org/mailman/listinfo/gnucash-devel
