Income from various members of my Rotary Club at weekly meetings destined for a particular charity (say Income:CharityX) now needs to be attributed to individual members for Gift Aid tax reclamation purposes.
I have set up individual accounts (Income:CharityX:Member01, Income:CharityX:Member02 etc) to enable this to be recorded and reported on in due course, and am working on the necessary editing of existing transactions. The method I have adopted is to create a dummy transaction between Assets:Petty Cash and each of these Member accounts, but with no amounts recorded, and then duplicate this to every date on which a CharityX transaction has already been recorded. The next step is to fill in the necessary contributions in the dummy transaction and then delete the original (two-split) transaction. I expected to be warned that the Petty Cash split had been already been reconciled, and that bad things would happen to my next reconciliation, as happens when an attempt is made to edit a reconciled transaction, but no such warning came up. I can’t find any option in Preferences to suggest that I’ve switched off the reminder I’d expected to see - shouldn’t a deletion be regarded as an edit of sorts, and bring up a suitable warning?
