[kmymoney4] [Bug 386168] scheduled transactions greyed out in ledger

Jack, Thomas


The problem is resolved, thank you. As I suspected, the error was mine. 
Your instructions have shown me the correct way to deal with the errant 
scheduled transactions, by using the right context menu which, to answer 
Thomas's question is titled Scheduled Transaction Options.

 From there I selected the enter next transaction option as suggested by 
Jack and this then gave me the ability to adjust the fields to reflect 
any changes to the base amount or date, and then to reconcile the record.

Oh,  and I have now read the manual (I have slapped my wrist and stood 
on the naughty step? That's the trouble with being old, you think you 
know everything !!)


Many Thanks again for your prompt and succinct replies


Regards

Mike

Also, you haven't clearly specified whether the problem transactions in the
ledger are before or after that transaction has actually been entered.  To
clarify, when you create a schedule, the next one or two upcoming instances of
that schedule are shown in the register, but only as a sort of place-holder. 
Since they are only scheduled, you can't do anything to them in the register. 
Only when it is "entered" does it become a real transaction you can manipulate. 

Have you read the Chapter 10 in the handbook on this topic?

Which version of KMyMoney are you using? This is indeed a very strange
behavior. What happens, if you right click on such a transaction? In case a
context menu appears (which is the intended behavior) I am interested in the
title line of that context menu.

Hi Jerry


Thanks for the prompt reply, I definitely must be doing something wrong 
as the scheduled transaction entry does not look greyed out but is when 
it gets posted in the ledger.

It doesn't happen to every record set up in Schedule Transactions, just 
certain ones. Does it depend on what payment method you choose for each 
transaction?

I would guess that it is greyed out in the register before the transaction is
actually entered.  As you discovered, before you actually enter a transaction
it only really exists in the schedule, so that is the only place to edit it. 
Once you enter it, it is a real transaction, and you should be able to edit it
in the ledger as you wish.  Also, you can edit the details as part of entering
the transaction, so you do not need to edit the base schedule.  When you do
make a change as part of entering the transaction, it should offer a pop-up
asking if you want to make those changes to all future scheduled transactions,
or only the one time.
