Okay John, I will try to be clearer. I am talking about inputting a new entry into an account. Say, my bank account. So, in the register I could enter Date; Notes: Account to Debit; Account to credit and their respective $ amounts. However, if this is an entry I make frequently I will scroll up to the last time I made a similar transaction> right click>select "Duplicate Transaction">enter the date>press OK and I am provided with a new transaction, accounts allocated and all. But, the $ amount may be different to what I want. So I edit the Debit and that forces an "Imbalance" entry on the Credit side.
I would like it to mirror my edit on the Credit contra account - assuming the whole transaction consists of a single Debit line and Credit line, respectively. As I say, this is not a major issue in any sense. I was just wondering, hoping, that there is a switch somewhere to accomplish that rule.
