Hi Tom, I'm arriving late to this party.... but..... if such a "balance at date" variable existed.... The sx would fire on schedule, create the transaction using the formula and the transaction wouldn't update live as you describe enjoying. > But the Bill Reminders in Quicken are much more > user-friendly and keep the amounts up-to-date in real time; whereas the > amounts for Scheduled Transactions in GnuCash are static and don't show > a true picture of what will be due to each payee as the due date approaches. So, you're really asking for "reminder transactions" which contain a live variable (not a fixed number) to be added to GC register code to match what quicken does. (I admit, does sound useful!) The SX sub-system is more an "automation macro" for creating regular, repetitive transactions - once created, txns in the registers don't change, regardless if that's one you manually enter or one the Sx system adds in. Just get the idea that you're trying to overload something new onto the Sx that won't quite scratch your itch! 0.02 Maf. _______________________________________________ gnucash-user mailing list [email protected] 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.
