I think that's somewhat why Linas introduce the Orphan-<currency> accounts, to make sure every transaction is balanced. But it's definitely good to know. FWIW, I'd personally like to see a way to "close the books" without saving off old data into another file -- e.g. I'd like to see a function that just created the balancing splits from Income and Expenses into an Equity Account. > -chris -- Derek Atkins, SB '93 MIT EE, SM '95 MIT Media Laboratory Member, MIT Student Information Processing Board (SIPB) URL: http://web.mit.edu/warlord/ PP-ASEL-IA N1NWH [EMAIL PROTECTED] PGP key available _______________________________________________ gnucash-devel mailing list gnucash-devel@gnucash.org https://lists.gnucash.org/mailman/listinfo/gnucash-devel
