Transactions are ordered by when they were entered. (there might be a few rules that break that in some registers)

You can use the NUM field to force a custom ordering. (if not otherwise used for actual transaction Numbers)

Since GnuCash doesn't expose a time field for the entry, I use NUM for a time stamp using 24-hr 4-digit times (with no separators—e.g., 0931 means "9:31 am") and append a "t" so I know it isn't a real transaction number, thus, "0931t" is my entry.

The "t" is not sorted by GnuCash, it is just for my own reference. (the sorting stops as soon as a non-numeric is encountered, which is why I don't use ":" or other separators)

You can just as easily use "1,2,3, ..."

Adrien

Well, this morning I goofed and deleted what I thought was a zero value
split in another register and in so doing deleted an entire entry, other
splits and all, in my main checkbook register.  As it worked out there
were a number of transactions and transfers to subaccounts on Monday,
Dec 28, and now this replacement entry is "out of order" with my
preferred ordering of the transactions.

I did not find any way to move a transaction up or down in the register
or insert a blank entry that I could cut and paste the transaction.

No, it's not the end of the world, but it would be a nice feature
request, if possible.  I guess being able to do something similar in a
spreadsheet has me spoiled.
