Re: [GNC] Printing addresses on checks

Is there a way to use the recorded address AND have the splits print on the check stubs? I am going to describe how you can do this assuming that gnucash does not allow you to do this directly. You know how to have gnucash produce the checks (and stubs) with the address but not the splits and how to have gnucash produce the checks (and stubs) with the splits but not the address, yes? Then you have gnucash do both but output to files (not directly to the printer). Then you write a little batch editor program that takes a record from each file and from these two produces a record with both the address and the splits on the stub portion. This is a good idea (output from gnucash to a file that then goes through a batch editor program before being printed) even if the output from gnucash was exactly what you wanted. Any time you have a name and address expected to show through an envelope window there is the risk that the next batch of envelopes will have the window in a slightly different position. Even a few mms can make the envelopes unusable. It is MUCH faster/easier to adjust the positioning of the name/address in that batch editor. LOL, several times in my working days I got the call "Mike, we are in the middle of a big mailing and just brought in a new pallet of envelopes, same supplier and supposedly the same, but the windows are now 3 mm higher". I could make/test the fix in a little batch editor program MUCH faster than I could going back into the program producing the mailing output and trying to fix it there.

Re: [GNC] Printing addresses on checks
When you post a bill, is the check box for 'consolidate splits' selected? When it is, the AR/AP accounts get a basic summary type transaction in their registers for the bill/invoice.
