Hi Sherlock,

I haven't actually tried that.  I've been trying to work with the standard GnuCash releases to better understand what functions and features are available as is.  I'm still coming up to speed with just the basics.  But it's sounding like what I'm looking for isn't really available -- at least not in the stable releases.  Have there been any similar comments or requests like mine about Scheduled Transactions in the past?  Has anyone else tried to add such functionality before?

Tom

Hi Tom,

Are you able to build GnuCash yet?

I'm still adjusting to GnuCash as a former Quicken user; and I have a question about setting up Scheduled Transactions for my Checking account.  In Quicken it was fairly straightforward to create Bill Reminders (essentially Scheduled Transactions) in Checking for each of my Credit Card accounts. And the amounts in each Reminder could be set to track each Credit Card balance.  Those Reminder amounts would update automatically as new transactions got entered into each Credit Card account.  That was great.  I could look at a list of Bill Reminders in my Checking account and see in advance how much money would be needed each month to pay off all the upcoming credit card bills.

In GnuCash though when I setup a Scheduled Transaction for my Checking account there doesn't seem to be anyway of doing that. The Template Transaction requires me to enter a FIXED amount for each Credit Card account.  So the list of Scheduled Transactions won't really reflect my CURRENT Credit Card balances -- not unless I manually go and update them everyday.  I've looked thru the GnuCash documentation; but I don't see any mention anywhere about this topic.  Is there some way to have Scheduled Transactions automatically show the full current Credit Card account balances?

Tom
