Yes probably right.  I generally duplicate and just update the account I
want it under :-)

Re: [GNC] Cut & Paste transaction problem

I'm assuming the copy/paste would be more for copying to a
different account as the duplicate option is in the same account.

Re: [GNC] Blank entry in my check register -- can't be removed

2021-05-03 Thread David Carlson
I have occasionally had the 'New Transaction' window seem to get stuck in a
fixed position in the transaction sequence of the register view and not
disappear or fall to the bottom of the window when it ordinarily would.
When that happened to me, it would revert to it's expected behavior after
saving and re-booting.  I was never able to figure out why.

[GNC] Blank entry in my check register -- can't be removed

2021-05-03 Thread randix
I'm using Windows 10 Pro, GnuCash Version: 4.5
Build ID: 4.5+(2021-03-27)
Finance::Quote: 1.49

This issue is a new one, I've never experienced in all the years of using
GnuCash.

In my check register for one of my accounts, I just noticed a blank
transaction (has a May 2nd date and all other fields are empty). If I try
and delete it, *nothing happens*. I exited out of GnuCash and then
re-started, but it's still there.  It's almost like it's "locked" but that
feature doesn't exist (does it?) in GnuCash.  This blank line appears
amongst other transactions, both before and after, eg it's not the
"standard" blank line for new entries (that remains unchanged) that appears
on the current date.  

It's not impacting the balance, etc., so I guess it's "harmless" but...

Any ideas of what's goin' on?

Re: [GNC] Cut & Paste transaction problem

I would be willing to bet that you never automatically got the original
date on any copy.  When I use the copy transaction feature in previous
releases of GnuCash up to 3.8 it always asks for the date and defaults to
today if not changed.

Re: [GNC] Cleaning out unneeded 'pre-pays' when paying vendors

Over the years I've sometimes processed a vendor invoice forgetting to print
it. So I unpost the invoice, repost it, then repay it, this time actually
printing the check. I then delete the extranious payment from checking.

During the payment process I'm offered a dialog box asking which of the
vendor invoices shown I want to pay. There should be only the one I just
entered.

When I look at current liabilities I don't see these 'pre-paid' invoices.
How do I clean out this cruft?


Anyone know how to do this?

Follow up to my earlier post, which I just noticed. My recommended
work-around for the Cut Transaction & Paste Transaction problem (using Copy
Transaction & Paste Transaction) has an issue I have never noticed before:

When I just used Copy Transaction & Paste Transaction, the date of the
original transaction did not carry through when I pasted, the new
transaction took today's date. Though I can't swear that it wasn't doing
this before, I am 95% certain it did not.

Within GnuCash it is computed (the sum on all reconciled data).
It *should* match the ending balance from your previous statement.  You
can go check that.  If it does NOT match, then you might have
inadvertantly un-reconciled a previous transaction, or possibly moved it
or accidentally changed it.

If the balance DOES match, then go through each transaction carefully --
most likely there is a typo in there, a missing transaction, or an extra
transaction.  (I had this issue recently where I mis-typed something, and
strangely the difference exactly equalled another transaction..  It took
me about 3 passes before I finally found the issue).

[GNC] Reconcile Opening Balance

2021-05-03 Thread Mahon Finbar

Hi,

I am sure this has come up beforebut.

Reconciling an account - I have a starting balance of €x,xxx.xx and an 
ending balance from the date of the latest bank statement of €x,xxx.xx.


So far so good. I have checked the entries in the a/c and all are either 
R or c. I have also checked there are no non-cleared that I don't know 
about.


However, I have a surplus when 'reconciled' and I cannot find out why

Is there anywhere I can find where the starting balance number comes 
from? Is that 'wrong' giving a surplus or am I missing transaction(s) 
somewhere?
