Another I forgot to mention, make sure to always use these three
flags, or add them to your ~/.ledgerrc:
--strict
--pedantic
--explicit
This way you have to define accounts first (instead of discovering
you've created new, typoed account names). This really will contribute
to the validity of your data, and keep you sane.
Here's an example from my accounts, my .ledgerrc:
; FORCE validation
--pedantic
--explicit
; Only allow these accounts
account Dest:Internal
account Dest:Projects
account Dest:DavidRose
account Equity
account Equity:Mileage
account Equity:OpeningBalances
; Only allow these tags
tag RECEIPT
tag CSV
tag MD5Sum
assert value =~ /^[0-9a-f]{32,}/
tag ER
assert value =~ /^AIS(ER|IN)[0-9]{4}|^Unassigned/
tag CATEGORY
assert value =~
/^(Airfare|BoardMeeting|Capital|CarRental|Comm|CustMeals|Fees|Gas|Gift|Insurance|Lodging|Marketing|Meals|Mileage|Misc|OfficeServices|Parking|Postage|Printing|Remodelling|Shipping|Supplies|Taxi|Tolls|Travel|TravelAgencyFee|Unknown)$/
