I never enter anything in that field anyway. After setting up the accounts, I then enter an initial transaction that sets all the opening balances. That way, I can modify that transaction later if the balances are wrong, or if I add a new account that needs an opening balance. For some accounts, the opening balance should be zero anyway! Like opening a new CD, you would then transfer money into the CD from some other account. --Steve -- Stephen M Butler, PMP, PSM [email protected] [email protected] 253-350-0166 ------------------------------------------- GnuPG Fingerprint: 8A25 9726 D439 758D D846 E5D4 282A 5477 0385 81D8 _______________________________________________ gnucash-user mailing list [email protected] To update your subscription preferences or to unsubscribe: https://lists.gnucash.org/mailman/listinfo/gnucash-user If you are using Nabble or Gmane, please see https://wiki.gnucash.org/wiki/Mailing_Lists for more information. ----- Please remember to CC this list on all your replies.
