If not, someone please enlighten me. Version: 4.2 Build ID: 4.2+(2020-09-26) Finance::Quote: 1.47 On Debian I was dealing with an intermediate account I made to help me follow a credit I have with the tax people. So I was moving payments made to the tax authority into an intermediate account, type Liability. They were moved from an Asset account, type Bank. They had been reconciled. So Tax has to be paid, counted in account X The liability to pay the tax is counted in account Y The payments are still made to the tax people from account Z Previously the system counted the tax in X and paid it from Y so instead of X <> Z the books now go X <> Y and Y <> Z To get the accounting correct I have had to move reconciled transactions from Z to Y (they were scheduled transactions). The change was made from X, a non-reconciled account I said "Do not tell me again this session that I am changing a reconciled transaction" When the transactions were reviewed in Y they remained reconciled, and the amounts were reconciled in Y, which was inappropriate. How much of this needs to go in the bug report?
