Your automated transaction *should* work, it's just a missing feature.

Or would be some good ways to track interests (which are periodical and 
irregular amounts(ie. percentages) ?

Hi John,
Noted. I assume this has something to do with one of the cardinal rules of 
Ledger which is it does not edit or change anything in the .ledger file. 
I am considering a cron job for this. Any other suggestions?
Thanks

This has been requested before, but to my knowledge there is no way to do what
you're trying. And no reason it couldn't be added, either, we just can't refer
to the totals of other accounts in all places yet.

Automated Transactions Identifier Error

[James]

Hi,
I can't get the automated transaction below to work.
Appreciate if someone could help with this. 



While parsing file "/home/system/LedgerTest/interest_test.ledger", line 2:
While evaluating value expression:
(account("Liabilities") * 0.05)
^^
While calling function 'account Liabilities':
While parsing posting:
Payable:MyCreditSupplier (account("Liabilities") * 0.05)
^^^
Error: Could not find an account matching 'Liabilities'



My ledger file is as follows:- 

~ monthly
 Payable:MyCreditSupplier (account("Liabilities") * 0.05)
 Accounts:checking

2017/01/01 Credit Goods
 Liabilities:VendorPayable:AcmeCo US$ 5,000.00
 Liabilities:VendorPayable:XZYCo US$ 3,000.00
 Liabilities:VendorPayable:Untitled US$ 2,000.00
 Assets:Inventory:Goods
