At present there is no way to multiply select transaction records in the
account registers for actions upon them including deleting them.

Why do you need to start a new checking account? You can use the
View->FilterBy to restrict displays to a specific date period and you can
set the current accounting period in the Edit->Preferences dialog. All
reports can have the date or a date range specified for them. 

GnuCash does have an Accounting Close Books function to zero out the income
ans expense accounts for a new accounting period for those of us who stick
to formal accounting procedure, but it is not necessary to use it as GnuCash
is setup that way. This would not normally be done toasset accounts in any
case.

Consult the Tutorial and User Guide
https://www.gnucash.org/docs/v3/C/gnucash-guide/index.html and Help manuals
https://www.gnucash.org/docs/v3/C/gnucash-help/help.html for detailed
instructions on using GnuCash.

2019-03-05 Thread varda241--- via gnucash-user
Is there any way to select more than one transaction for deleting or 
duplicating? I normally start a new checking account each January, but did not 
do it this year till now, due to 
moving.Sent from my Verizon ASUS tablet
