Re: [GNC] Bill allocated to the wrong account
I've found GnuCash does try to re-link payments automatically, but this seems to be one case where it fails. Later reading shows the payment also is linked to other bills, so that is likely the reason. Regards, Adrien On 11/15/23 7:50 AM, Derek Atkins wrote: When you unpost, the payment gets detached.

Re: [GNC] Bill allocated to the wrong account
If the payment transaction is still partially assigned to other
documents, "Edit Payment" is what you want. ("Assign" only appears for
transactions 'not already assigned')
You need to select all of the documents like you did originally to link
it. (*all* bills being paid by this payment and if necessary, the Credit
Note unless you are holding that as a later offset)
As Maf noted, in a worst case, if this doesn't work (it should) then
nuke the payment and re-process it. (and then please file a bug)

Adrien

Re: [GNC] Bill allocated to the wrong account
OK, I'm at a loss, then. I get the attached right-click menu in my checking account. the only thing I can suggest (that I've done in the past) is to delete the payment txn in the bank account and redo the "process payment" workflow as normal from the from the bills due dialogues etc. You'll have to redo the reconcilliation, but that will only be a single txn to (re-)check off against the previous statement.

Edit payment does not seem to get me anything I know how to use.

Well, from the options in the screenshot, "Edit payment" seems the most appropriate. another choice you *may* have is to "process payment" like normal and select something like "auto balance forward" and the edited bill in the dialog box, but I'm relly not sure on that. The final option (a little more nuclear) is to delete the payment txn from the bank account and reprocess all the relevant bills.

Here's what I see in the bank account for the one that has *not *be reconciled. The total amount for the bill is £52.76, but was paid along with several others to the same vendor as I have a credit account with them. I have unposted the billed, corrected the error, and posted it again, but it shows as unpaid. This is what I see in the bank account. I don't any "Assign as payment" when I right click. See screenshots. I'm using GnuCash 5.4 on Windows. (Note there was another error on this - when I paid the vendor I actually overpaid £10. So there's a £10 credit note, but that was used the next month, so that's not a big deal.)

Do the same thing.edit the bill in the ususal way, then reassign the payment. Worst that happens (if the bank account txn unreconciles itself) is an extra transaction at the top of the next reconcilliation. Just include it and go to the correct ending balance and it should all work out. Or just re- do the last reconcile again. but I don't think it will get that far.

Re: [GNC] Bill allocated to the wrong account
When you unpost, the payment gets detached. After you re-post it, you will need to re-attach the payment. -derek On Wed, November 15, 2023 8:36 am, David Kirkby wrote: > I have received a couple of bills from an electronics component supplier. > These should be allocated as "Stock" but I must have accidentally clicked > "Travel" instead.(I noticed this after doing a trial balance, and seeing > some travel there, when I knew there was no travel). > > One has been reconciled against the bank account, the other one has not. > > I thought the one that had not been reconciled would be easy to correct by > just unposting, changing the account from Travel to Stock.

[GNC] Bill allocated to the wrong account
I have received a couple of bills from an electronics component supplier. These should be allocated as "Stock" but I must have accidentally clicked "Travel" instead.(I noticed this after doing a trial balance, and seeing some travel there, when I knew there was no travel). One has been reconciled against the bank account, the other one has not. I thought the one that had not been reconciled would be easy to correct by just unposting, changing the account from Travel to Stock. I did that, and it was okay. However, at that point is was shown as unpaid. What's the best way of paying it? The more tricky one is the one that has been reconciled to the bank account. Can that be corrected easily? If not, I could just leave it as Travel and let my accountant know. The amount is quite small - under £10, but I would like to get it right if possible. -- Dr David Kirkby Ph.D Kirkby Microwave Ltd Email: drkir...@kirkbymicrowave.co.uk Web: https://www.kirkbymicrowave.co.uk/ Telephone 07910 441670 (UK) or +44 7910 441670 (international) Registered in England and Wales, company number 08914892.
