Cool about the importer changes, I look forward to seeing them when the
code makes its way to my gnucash stability zone.

And good suggestions, thanks.

In the end, the suggestion to search in order to get a register window
with just those transactions, then to refine the search to the
(initially) same set by specifying the incorrect account allowed very
efficient copying and pasting.  So the initial need is past.

Point well taken.  I'll have a think and file a bug.

Jeff,

That is not currently available but I recently made changes in the importer
matching which allowed multiple selection of transactions and assignment in
that case of a destination account. That is not in the current and the newly
released version 
 as yet. It may be possible to  similarly process multiple transactions  to
the account registers as well. The use case that I think can be addressed is
where in an account register there are a number of transactions where the
split of the transaction to that register needs to be changed to another
account. It could work with a CTRL-click to select multiple transactions,
followed by a right click to bring up the popup menu and adding an option to
move the selected transactions to another account and a select account
dialog followed to select an accont to transfer the splits to. 

The question has been asked before but that does not necessarily initiate
any changes in the program. What is needed is a feature request Bug report
at bugs.gnucash.org. If you raise a Bug request and describe how you would
like it to work it will  then at least be assigned a priority in the list of
fixes.

David Cousens.

Still nothing like that available in the GUI. You'll find it easiest if you can 
create a find query that gets them all into a journal register.

[GNC] moving multiple transactions

2018-09-30 Thread Jeff Abrahamson
While doing end of year validation, I've found a hundred or so
transactions that were inadvertently entered against the wrong account.

I see from googling that this is asked frequently and, in the past,
hasn't been possible.

In 2012

In 2017
http://gnucash.1415818.n4.nabble.com/bulk-transaction-update-td4688921.html

It seemed worth checking if any newer solutions have arisen.  But maybe
I'll go brew a cup of tea and get on with it. ;-)
