Hi Liz,

I know what you're saying as far as GnuCash handling things "under the hood" once the transactions are setup.  The reason it's a bit annoying (at least once a year) is that I usually need to adjust the estimated payments each year.  So it would be easier to only have to adjust 2 scheduled transactions, rather than having to edit and update 8 of them individually every year.

As I said, it's really minor.  But if anyone had come up with an easy way to handle these kinds of irregular schedules it would be useful to know about it.  Editing 2 each year is better than editing 8.  (Hey, I'll admit I'm lazy.)

I know this isn't a big issue.  But I'm just wondering if it's
possible to combine those 8 scheduled transactions into just 2.  Any
advice would be appreciated.
I don't know of any way to do that.
I would also note that once they are all scheduled it doesn't really
matter how they appear in the editor for scheduled transactions, as
Gnucash handles the rest under the hood.

I have had 12 monthly tax payments listed, 4 occurring regularly at
quarterly intervals with one set of splits, and the other 8 on the
fill in months with a second set of splits.

I made separate entries for the second group as the only way I found to
manage this in Gnucash.
It was then of no concern until I needed to cancel eight separate
entries.
