Tim,
Are you running the latest GnuCash -- v5.16? If you are, then in the
top menu bar of Scheduled Transactions there should be a "Run" button
just to the right of the "Delete" button. Clicking that Run button
should allow you to enter whatever transaction you currently have
highlighted, regardless of the scheduled date.

Thanks so much for your reply. I honestly didn't expect a reply.
I have found a work around for this issue, but if this group wants to help
its users most, this is probably the next issue to address. It appears that
there is an "enter" button already on the screen when I look at the details
of my scheduled transactions, it just needs to be functionalized to enter
the scheduled transaction on the date it is pressed. Not a hard routine to
add.
Otherwise, it's a pretty good program. I used to use Quicken and QuickBooks.
But they just got too expensive upon retirement.
Thanks again,
Dr. Tim

Dr Tim,
The only way I know to enter a SX early is to set it as a reminder x days in
advance. Then once that date has arrived or is past you can use
Actions/Scheduled Transaction/Since Last Run or if you have them set up in
Preferences/Scheduled Transactions/Run when data file opened it will show in
the list and you can edit it from a reminder to "To Create" and it will
create it. The only other way is to edit the scheduled transaction to
today's date and do the same thing. However, this will change all future
Sxs. Many people have asked to be able to launch a scheduled transaction
early, but the programmers haven't made it a priority. I think it was 1st
suggested over 6 years ago.
Thank You,
Gyle McCollam

Subject: [GNC] Entering Scheduled Transaction Early into account register.
I have tried in vain to make this work in GnuCash. I have the updated stable
version (v5 I think) on my MS Surface PC. Can you give me the detailed
instructions how to enter a scheduled transaction early? I have searched
this question on Google and the instructions don't work.
Thanks guys.
