Verifying this behavior R Losey reported using GnuCash 5.9 on Windows 11. Also the "anchor" is not very strong, as I changed the split account that was supposedly anchoring the scheduled transaction, and then I could delete the split.
I would consider this a bug. It's definitely not a feature, but my larger question is about why the anchor message comes up if it's so easy to change the anchor split and then delete it. > On 11/01/2024 8:49 AM PDT R Losey <rlo...@gmail.com> wrote: > > > I brought up the scheduled transaction editor, and attempted to delete one > of entry of a multi-split transaction, and I received the error message: > "You cannot delete this split", stating that it was anchoring this > transaction to the register... this was in a register - it was the > transaction editor. > > I am running the current version 5.9 on an M1 iMac running 14.6.1.
