Thanks David, Section 4.5 explains how to set a scheduled transaction. I don't see how to manually post the scheduled transaction. I scheduled a transaction to pay my water bill based on a prior transaction in the ledger. It is set to occur on the 9th of every month. I did not set the transaction to be created by GC. I want to manually post the transaction. Prior to posting the transaction, I want to set the date, the amount, and add a comment in the notes field. In the Template tab of Edit Scheduled Transaction, I can edit several fields including the note field and the amount. The Date column shows "Scheduled" and does not allow me to set a date. I do not see how to set the date to the date I pay the bill and I do not see how to manually post the transaction. ---------- Original Message ---------- From: "David T." <sunfis...@yahoo.com> To: "pfwoolver...@juno.com" <pfwoolver...@juno.com> Cc: gnucash-user@gnucash.org Subject: Re: Manually Post Scheduled Transactions Date: Sun, 23 Jul 2017 23:03:36 +0500
Have you looked at section 4.5 of the Tutorial and Concepts Guide? https://www.gnucash.org/docs/v2.6/C/gnucash-guide/txns-sxn1.html Let us know what that fails to cover.

I want to manually post scheduled transactions and have the transactions show dates I select.I reviewed the Concepts Guide and the Help Manual, and searched the user archives without success. I have bits and pieces, but still do not understand how to manually post the transactions.My prior experience is with MS Money 3.0. MS Money shows a window with a list of future transactions. To post a transaction in MS Money, I select it and update fields such as date, amount, and memo. Then I enter the transaction. The transaction is posted and a new, future transaction is created in the list.I would like step-by-step instructions on how to manually post a scheduled transaction starting with a transaction which is not set to be created by GC. Is there a source for such instructions?_______________________________________________gnucash-user ma iling listgnucash-user@gnucash.orghttps://lists.gnucash.org/mailman/listinfo/gnucash-user-----Please remember to CC this list on all your replies.You can do this by using Reply-To-List or Reply-All. _______________________________________________ gnucash-user mailing list gnucash-user@gnucash.org https://lists.gnucash.org/mailman/listinfo/gnucash-user ----- Please remember to CC this list on all your replies.
