Hello, when I was using Gnucash, then reconcillation was easy and for few account I was doing it monthly by assestion the end of month’s balance.
Now, with Beancount I’m not sure how to it - I’ve tried with balance assertion like: 2016-09-30 ! "NLB" "interest" Assets:Bank:NLB 0.01 EUR Income:Interest-EU -0.01 EUR 2016-09-30 ! "NLB" "banking fee" Expenses:Bank:NLB:Fees 1.80 EUR Assets:Bank:NLB -1.80 EUR 2016-09-30 balance Assets:Bank:NLB 701.25 EUR but it fails with: Balance failed for 'Assets:Bank:NLB': expected 701.25 EUR != accumulated 703.05 EUR (1.80 too much) 2016-09-30 balance Assets:Bank:NLB 701.25 EUR I know that one of the differences between Ledger and Beancount is that Ledger does parsing chronologically and then since the assertion statement comes *after* transactions (which are, btw., usual for the end of the month when the bank gives some interest and/or takes its fee the checking accounts) it works in Ledger, but wonder how to solve it in Beancount? Of course, if I change the date of balance assestion to e.g. 2016-10-01 then it fits, but the problem is that I’d like to have balance assesrtion at the end of the month since, beginning of new month might already bring new transcations into the play?
