I have lent monies to a family member and now wish to track the balances on an ongoing basis. I have been looking at the guides etc but just cannot understand the concept / account hierarchy given my circumstances.
The software I am using is: * Version: Version: 4.1, Build ID: 4.1+(2020-07-25) * Windows 10 My location/currency is: * GBP, UK Based My Gnu Cash account setup is: * I have a cheque account * I have a savings account 1 * I have a savings account 2 * Plus others. My use case is: * It will be an interest free loan * My family member has borrowed £2000 * Loan taken from Savings account 1 into * Cheque Account then electronically bank transfer * To family member bank account. * A repayment is made each month * The family member transfers a set amount, say £100. This is electronically deposited into my bank Cheque account * To date, I have electronically bank transferred monies into Savings Account 2 and updated gnu cash * I have no immediate report of monies repaid / outstanding. My preferred outcome: 1. To track the Principal amount of £2000 * To track each payment into my Cheque Account from family member - normally monthly (once bank transactions have been uploaded into gnu cash) * To understand how much has been paid - to date * To understand how much is outstanding * To transfer each repayment into Gnu cash Savings account 2 and bank account * To be able to get reports on the above. Given the above, I would be most grateful if you can advise what account hierarchy / transaction splits etc I need in Gnu cash to support the above? I thank you for your time and support.
