Stan and John - There is no standard as to how the interest is calculated/accrued by the institution, and when it is paid - some calculate daily but only pay monthly or quarterly. Some don't pay until CD matures but some deposit on monthly basis. Unfortunately SX is not going to help in those cases.
Gyle - your best bet is to trigger it 3 days later from scheduled day as by US regulations when a financial transaction has to be settled fully. -----Original Message----- From: Gyle McCollam <[email protected]> Sent: Monday, January 19, 2026 8:48 PM To: Stan Brown (using GC 4.14) <[email protected]>; [email protected] Subject: Re: [GNC] SX Stan & John, No I'm looking to trigger a SX, say on the 19th, but have it recorded on the 18th. My bank posts interest on my account for the 18th, but I don't see that posted until the next day. Gnucash triggers the SX on the 18th, when I open in the morning. I don't know th amount until the next day as the bank posts at the close of business, not in the morning. I can go back and adjust. But there are many account per month that need to be adjusted.

I use this for my social Security and annuity checks, both of which are direct deposited to my Checking Account account. That lets me see both the payments I've scheduled using my bank's Bil Pay, and the known income, so that I can see whether I will have a shortfall and will need to transfer money from savings. Create in advance takes only a positive number of days, so you can have a transaction post before its date, but not after.
