[GNC] Default View - Was Re: Random Payment To: field and For: field -- without creating invoice?
This brings up the idea that it might be worthwhile to change the default view to Double Line View.

Re: [GNC] Default View - Was Re: Random Payment To: field and For: field -- without creating invoice?
The Notes field is quite useful. I see a fair amount of requests for extra fields. I wonder how many don’t know about it. I also wonder how many people use each view option. Do most just stick with Basic and Single Line? As I noted in the other thread, I didn’t discover this option until about 4 years into using GnuCash. And I like to poke around apps for the most part.

Re: [GNC] Default View - Was Re: Random Payment To: field and For: field -- without creating invoice?
I will elaborate a little to report that while I prefer the double line view, there are probably enough users of single line view that it should still be readily available. I also find myself frequently switching ledger view on and off and filter and sort options depending on what I want to see at any given time, so I think all these choices need to be easy to access. In response to Frank Ellenberger 's request, I am not able to edit the FAQS, but I agree that would be a good place to put this info. Maybe there could also be a comment in the program tips section.

Re: [GNC] Default View: Tip
Since I use the notes field in almost every transaction, I cannot imagine a reason not to use it. I suppose one way to state it would be payee goes in the description and why or how goes in the notes. Since it is arbitrary text, use your imagination. When users import transactions from financial institutions they have an opportunity to include supporting text in the notes field. That text is used by the transaction matcher to assign potential matches with greater precision.

Re: [GNC] Default View: Tip
The full list of free-text fields available to use are: per-Transaction: Num, Description per-Split: Action, Memo The book property 'Use Split Action Field For Number' will internally swap Num & Action IIUC. The main purpose was originally likely to mimic Quicken behaviour. Quicken (DOS) is available to explore at https://archive.org/details/msdos_Quicken_7 The secondary purpose is to have enough text fields to store data from OFX imports.
