Example: In a trip to the supermarket I buy food, wine, flowers, and cleaning supplies. To record that, I enter a transaction in GC, in the register for my credit card: Description = (store name) Click the Split button. In each of four splits, Memo = details of what I bought, Account = (account for that type of expense), Debit = (amount) In the fifth split, Memo = blank, Account = (credit card), credit = (total) All of that is fine. (I don't divide that purchase into four transactions, because I want the credit amount to match what will be shown on my credit-card statement.)
But here's the problem. On the next trip to that store, I buy only food. What I want to do, in the account register for my credit card, is enter Description = (store name), Transfer = "Groceries", Credit = (amount). But as soon as I enter the store name in description, GC creates five splits that duplicate that previous shopping trip. I have to click Split and manually delete three splits, one at a time. Is there some way to tell GC "don't finish this one transaction for me"? Or, almost as good, when it does do the auto-complete, is there some way to tell it "not this time, thank you", and have it delete all of what it helpfully created for me?? -- Regards, Stan Brown Tehachapi, CA, USA https://BrownMath.com https://OakRoadSystems.com _______________________________________________ gnucash-user mailing list gnucash-user@gnucash.org To update your subscription preferences or to unsubscribe: https://lists.gnucash.org/mailman/listinfo/gnucash-user If you are using Nabble or Gmane, please see https://wiki.gnucash.org/wiki/Mailing_Lists for more information. ----- Please remember to CC this list on all your replies.
