I'm guessing my liability encumbrances look a bit different from what
you're talking about. In my case, the encumbrance is made like this:
Expense:Discretionary Earnings x
Liabilities:Discretionary x
And relieved by
Liabilities:Discretionary x
Assets:Checking x
This way, discretionary purchases don't show up directly on profit and
loss, only what I care about: the expense of earning discretionary funds.
What you're talking about is probably populated more like
Assets:Chequing x
Liabilities:Organ Fund x
Then some expense:
Expense:Organ x
Assets:Chequing x
But then how is the encumbrance relieved?

transaction look?
