Hello. I would like to plan out future replacement of many physical
assets. I am thinking of tracking them as commodities and importing future
transactions, then separately importing estimated future pricing. I notice
when I post an entry with a number of shares but no price, the price
database
The confusion arises when you use "entry" for both splits and transactions in
the same paragraph, as you did here.

Gyle,
Whether you delete the imbalance account or not once it is empty is a user
preference. Some dislike seeing the imbalance account in their books, and
delete it if it is empty. Others (like myself and you) leave that account in
place. I leave it because it just reappears again later
Hello all,
Sorry it's been a while, but a pre-release release candidate of
Finance::Quote v1.52 is available from Github.
https://github.com/finance-quote/finance-quote/releases/tag/v1.52-rc.1
A Github discussion for this release can be found at
I agree that the matching step is critical when importing and the proper
account should be assigned during import. I also agree that the OP needs to
understand Double Entry accounting better, However, if he has "empty"
transactions in the imbalance account, my bet is that if he clicks on the

Of course, if they have time out of their day coding GnuCash to chime
in, I'm sure they can enlighten you more on the issues they have to
consider in the code, and why that decision was
First, Imbalance-USD is not an expense account but a top level account, and
it is intended to be used only when an automated function is unable to form
a fully balanced transaction. You are correct that you can look under that
account name to find unbalanced transactions if and when they exist.
I have been populating my accounts with CSV. During the import, the tool
doesn't have any existing transactions to match, so most of them get assigned
the expense category 'Imbalance-USD'.
I am to the point of making sure that accounts are reconciled and transactions
don't have left over or

I'm pretty sure the issue isn't GnuCash development. (based on previous
threads) The issue is that BTC and other 'coins' don't have ISO currency
codes. When/if they get one, GC will include them.

That's a great solution until GNC development catches up to the crypto world:
we will keep separate GNC file for each cryptoasset.
The remaining problem is that Bitcoin Lightning goes to 11 decimal places, and
Ethereum I think
Good. That eliminates my concern. I hope Julie finds a solution.

Yes, quite right! This workaround is for an account involving only BTC txs.
Can still cross-currency by entering the rate manually, which should still be
less trouble, busywork and error-prone than treating Bitcoin as a stock.
Until Bitcoin is coded into GC as a proper currency and a possible
But you can’t then quotes for cross-currency values directly, because such

Unfortunately, the idea of pretending that 1$ = 1BTC doesn't work exactly as it
should, because the Spend/Receive fields don't accept entries smaller than
