Well, now that you have it mostly right, maybe go in to the second account
register and see whether you can change the second split price to zero from
there, using the same tabbing technique.

Jon,
I believe that, as discussed earlier by Christopher Lam and David T,
GnuCash may not prevent you from creating a transaction containing only two
lines, one removing shares from one brokerage account and one another
adding shares to a different brokerage account, and it may even be possible

Jon,
I can't test this right now, since I'm not at my machine...
Try this:
Open your source account.
Move to the entry point in the register.
Click the 'Split' button. Enter your description.
Tab to the Shares field in the first split and type -13.
Tab to the price field and type 0.
Now,
There may not be any internal technical restrictions preventing you from
directly decreasing the share count of a share account, and increasing in
another.
However this is pretty much uncharted territory when it comes to reports
and reporting assumptions.
Typically I'd expect someone who tries to

Now I see that I was also confused by the way that G Mail was showing this

Now David Cousens, you are confusing me. If you are referring to
re-writing the original purchase transaction to correct an error, and the
cash that is also transferred in that transaction is also corrected to the
new brokerage account, then I agree with you.

David C. makes one suggestion. I would ask whether the destination account is
also denominated in the selected stock. If not, then gnucash will convert
between different commodities (e.g., between shares of stock and USD).

Sorry for the overkill Jon.
In that case it is fairly simple. If you open the transaction in the account

Jon,
It is not very clear what situation you are dealing with. One would not
usually move stock from one account to another as such. Their purchase or
sale would normally be recorded in an Asset:Invetment account of type Stock.
What you are recording is the exchange of money to or from your bank a
Are there any written or video tutorials for moving shares between
stock accounts? There's very little about this in the manual or the list
archives, and my attempts end up subtracting shares from one account and
adding what appears to be USD to the other account.
