Stan, I created a SX in 5.8 and it still allows this. Go ahead and file your bug report.
Thank You, Gyle McCollam Gyle McCollam gmccol...@live.com<mailto:gmccol...@gyleshomes.com> email ________________________________ From: gnucash-user <gnucash-user-bounces+gylemc=gmail....@gnucash.org> on behalf of Stan Brown (using GC 4.14) <stan...@fastmail.fm> Sent: Wednesday, July 31, 2024 10:08 AM To: GnuCash User List <gnucash-user@gnucash.org> Subject: [GNC] Placeholder accounts and scheduled transactions This month I changed "Cash and Banks" to a placeholder account, and added subaccounts for actual cash and each of my bank accounts. But I have a couple of scheduled transactions that credit or debit Cash and Banks, and I forgot to change those. To my surprise, when the transactions fired, GC happily put the splits into Cash and Banks, even though Cash and Banks is now a placeholder account (I checked). I would have expected some sort of error message when those transactions fire, ideally with some sort of popup to let me designate a non-placeholder to take the split this time. I'm at GC 4.14, so if 5.8 no longer posts SX to placeholder accounts there's not much point in my entering a bug. But if the behavior is still the same then I think bug report is appropriate. Would someone be willing to check, please? -- Stan Brown Tehachapi, CA, USA https://BrownMath.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 ----- Please remember to CC this list on all your replies.
