I quite often seem to have cases where several 'items' (see below for the type of thing I mean) are paid for with a single payment to/from a bank account. What is a good way to record this sort of thing?
Examples:- I pay in money (cash) from collections and other donations. These need to be recorded as separate items but end up as a single deposit to the bank account. At present I manage these by entering them as separate transactions but with the same deposit slip number in the 'Num' column in GnuCash. Is there a better way? I pay money from (say) a savings account to a current account to cover several payments (to one supplier) from the current account. Similarly the payment from the current account may be a single payment to cover several invoices. How should one record these? I want to be able to see how the single payment is made up from several items but also show that it was a single transaction. There isn't a 'Num' to use in the second case above, this isn't a cheque payment, it's an online transaction so there's no (easy) way to identify it really. Would a split transaction work for this? However I thought split transactions are for joining together payments to 'different' places rather than joining together several payments to and from the same places. Any/all help would be very welcome. -- Chris Green _______________________________________________ gnucash-user mailing list gnucash-user@gnucash.org To update your subscription preferences or to unsubscribe: https://lists.gnucash.org/mailman/listinfo/gnucash-user ----- Please remember to CC this list on all your replies.
