I'd disagree that it's a "fake" transaction. If they had credited it back to your card, it would have been a new transaction in your bank account to reconcile against. It's certainly a new transaction for the merchant. For you, it's just a cash transaction deposit of money you have to spend again. I have returns, mostly on my card, and I treat them as a deposit (that they are) and set the deposit's bucket to the bucket it came from. I also use the memo field to put a reminder that it was a refund. > the original transaction is already removed - and reconciled... in the > q program i would have just added a line for misc -- so i guess i will > just do that :) also - if i Dont change the original split it looks > like i spent 57.75 MORE in that bucket (for which i returned items) > than i actually did. As I said above, I set the deposit back into the bucket. Then I either leave it there to spend again (usually if it's Grocery Store related), or use a money flow to another bucket (usually my Misc Income bucket). Your graph may look wrong to you, but I see it as I really did spend X dollars on that bucket in the month. I just happen to get some of it back.
