I'm running GnuCash version 4.5 (build ID: Flathub 4.5) on Ubuntu 20.10. I experienced this problem: After entering a transaction in the wrong register, I used the Transaction > Cut transaction command, went to the correct register, and used Transaction > Paste transaction. There was an immediately visible problem. While some fields came across intact, several of them were clearly out of order or seemingly random data. As it happens, the first time I noticed this was on a split transaction with 4 or 5 splits, and the data was well and truly mangled beyond recognition. Since, I have verified this with both split and single-line (non-split) transactions in credit card registers, but have not tried every type of account register.
For the time being, I recommend using Transaction > Copy transaction followed by Transaction > Paste transaction (a combination which seems to work correctly) and then delete the unwanted original. Because Copy then Paste seems to work, my suspicion is that the bug is in the "Cut" portion of the code. I have not experienced this problem before, and have cut & pasted transactions in this manner plenty of times. _______________________________________________ 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.
