Re: Scheduled Transaction Help :(

2017-08-08 Thread Steve
Figured I'd put an end to this thread.  Bottom line, I eventually got it to
work, although I can't offer much of an explanation as to why.  I DELETED
all of the scheduled entries I made, and started over.  Used the same
entries.  It's working now.

Another thing to try that once helped me to fix some old and broken SEx's
(android did tat and I can't fix it.) is to enter zero's into every empty
acccouunt value box so there are two values in each line.

Sounds crazy but it actually worked

Re: Scheduled Transaction Help :(

2017-08-02 Thread Steve
I double checked the settings, and mine look correct.

As I indicated, although the scheduled transaction SAYS in my screenshot the
last occurrence was on 9/1/17, in fact no transaction for it was created on
9/1/17. I did try changing the time to 60 days as you suggested, and ran it,
and a transaction was indeed created for 10/1 (but none for 9/1, as I assume
it thinks it already did that).

So I guess my next question is, is it possible to "reset" the dates that
gnucash is keeping track of, for scheduled transactions.  Or do I need to
DELETE my scheduled transaction and re-enter it to get a clean slate?  That
really has nothing to do with solving my problem, but it would help in
testing to try and figure out what is going on.

My other transactions on 8/1 also are showing that the last created
occurrences was on 9/1, but again, NO transactions were in fact created.  So
clearly this isn't just related to an isolated transaction of mine, it's
impacting all of my scheduled transactions.

I'll fool with it a bit more; worst case I'll just go back to manually doing
it.  Figured I'd throw it out there in case someone noticed I was doing
something wrong...

Re: Scheduled Transaction Help :(

2017-08-02 Thread Dave H
Hi Steve,

This is how I set mine up, I don't bother with the remind in advance as I'm
already telling it to create the transaction and notify me when it does and
I use Gnucash daily so I don't need a reminder.

Your screenshot seems to indicate it thinks it's already created the
transaction for 1 September as it says Last Occurred : 2017-09-01 - are you
sure there's not one there ?  If not you could try bumping the create in
advance out another 5-6 weeks and try running the since last run wizard
again an see if it creates the transaction for October.

Have you checked the frequency tab settings to ensure they're consistent
with what you want ?

Scheduled Transaction Help :(

2017-08-02 Thread Steve
I'm running Windows 10, GnuCash Version 2.6.17.

After using GnuCash for a number of years, I finally am getting around to
using the Scheduled Transaction feature.  Previously I would simply add the
upcoming anticipated transactions to the account registry, and then when the
date in question hit for payment, I would manually add another transaction
for the same item for the next due date.  At least I could have a snapshot
of upcoming transactions.

Anyway, so I went and added all of my scheduled transactions with no issue,
I did this around July 27th or so, some were to hit on the 1st or 2nd. 
After making my initial entries, I used the "since last run", and it worked
perfect, eg all of the scheduled entries I made, appeared in the various
accounts for the next payment date.  So all is good.

So 8/1 comes and goes, 8/2 comes and go.  Although I have the settings on
each transaction to create automatically AND to create in advance (31 days),
I of course expected to see new transactions to appear on 9/1 and 9/2 in the
relevant accounts.  But no transactions appear.  When I exit and re-start
GnuCash, they still don't appear, when I click "since last run" they also
don't appear.  When I bring up the relevant transactions in Scheduled
Transactions I do note it says "Last occurrence: 9-1-2017", but there's no
new entry for 9/1.

Below is a screenshot of one of the transactions in Scheduled Transactions. 
Can anyone give me a clue as to what I'm obviously doing wrong?  Thanks!  :)
