Can someone please explain to me how to associate individual files (e.g. pdf copies of receipts) with their respective transactions. I wish to have receipts for transactions linked to each bank account and each credit card account in their corresponding individual folders. I managed to achieve this for several dozen transactions on account #1 by at first specifying the folder #1 in question as a base path (or head?) and then selecting the files one by one until completed. This resulted in relative addresses, and I have verified that the file names (but not their paths) are indeed stored in the .gnucash file. (I un-g-zipped the file and loaded it in an xml reader.) I then proceded to another account #2 and set the new appropriate base path to folder #2, expecting to see the first several dozen file paths change to absolute addresses. And they did - except not to folder #1 but erroneously to folder #2. And at the same time, they did not - at least the file names remain untouched in the .gnucash file, and neither folder #1 nor folder #2 is visible in that file.(Then where?) So in addition to getting the associations right (i.e., absolute rather than relative file paths) in the first place, it would also help to figure out how to change the few dozen first associations already registered, to their correct absolute path and remain mapped there. (I do indeed hope this is possible.)
