Re: [GNC] how to encode ATM withdrawals with fees

I agree. I think part of this is UI design choices. It isn't that GnuCash made wrong ones, but rather that folks might be more familiar with other design patterns. These might also be the folks that don't like to read manuals. They are never going away, though some may eventually relent and

I just do it simply by taking the amount in the foreign currency and the TOTAL amount that affects my bank, and roll any fees into the exchange rate. So in your case, a simple transaction of 10,000 JPY to 4282.49 PHP. Unless there is really some required reason to keep track of the fees? -derek

Folks trying to imitate Pen & Paper using a computer are always going to have to adjust their workflow or make concessions for the difference in formats. This is true no matter the task at hand, or the software used, and is true of things not even accounting related at all. I'm glad

For the record, I'm also against this popup, but for a different reason. The FAQ is an overwhelming never-shrinking aggregation of items that would be better placed in other documentation. Including it on a monthly basis would not really benefit a new user with a specific problem. When I go to
