Jeff Another approach you could try would be to create a temporary account in your dad's books and move the transactions that should have gone into your account into it. Should work if all of the transactions have at least one account in common , e.g. an Asset; bank account or similar. if not you may need to create more than one temp account.
You could then export the transactions in that temp accountas an OFX or CSV file which you could then import into your own books. If the target accounts are the same in yours and your dad's books they should import but if not edit those that aren't. CSV may be more appropriate if you need to edit the transactions before importing If you then delete the temporary account in your dad's books and choose to discard the transactions in it you should be good.

These are separate journal files. > _______________________________________________ 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.
