Re: [GNC] Error deleting scheduled transaction spl
Hi Stephen, Nope just a bog standard 2 split txn - cheque account & expense account. Had a different register open and just tried going from the Accounts tab. Clicked Actions >> Sheduled Txns >> Scheduled Txn Editor, highlight scheduled txn and click edit. The only thing I can think of is that I originally created the scheduled txn from an actual txn in a register and it remembers that somehow ? Cheers David H.

Re: [GNC] Error deleting scheduled transaction spl
Yes, I've seen that error when I attempt to delete the split from the account where it shows up. However, this was in the scheduled transaction editor that I almost certainly made from the checkbook account... My scheduled transaction was a 4-way split: The amount coming out of the checking account, and three different expense accounts. I was trying to delete one of the expense account splits. I went ahead and let the transaction enter (after I was unable to delete the split) and had no trouble deleting the unneeded split from the checking account.

Re: [GNC] Error deleting scheduled transaction spl
Yes but why does it matter when you are in the Scheduled Txn Editor and not a Transaction Register for either of the split lines ? And no it doesn't make a difference if you just manually create the scheduled txn versus right clicking on an existing txn and scheduling it. Cheers David H.

Re: [GNC] Error deleting scheduled transaction split
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 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.

[GNC] Error deleting scheduled transaction split
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. I suspect it may happen on other platforms; I'll probably try on Windows a bit later today. As a temporary workaround, I have set the amount of that split entry to zero, and when it gets triggered and entered, I just delete the unneeded line from the register, and it deletes without any problems. -- _ Richard Losey rlo...@gmail.com Micah 6:8 ___ 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.

[GNC] Setting up a Transaction Report
I am obviously missing something here as I am unable to find a Transaction Report template in the list of reports that addresses my needs. I am still setting up my GnuCash instance and I want to produce a Transaction Report format that I am familiar with which will help me reconcile my hardcopy data into GC and is akin to Quicken/Reckon comprising: 1) one account 2) date of the transaction 3) description of the transaction 4) amount of the transaction 5) subtotaled by the report parameter default of all transactions in the report OR if across a month (as in 15 June to 14 July) subtotalling each month with a total for the entire period I understand that there is a parameter called "Account Display Depth" (with selections of "All", and individual selections of 1 through 6 levels), which I interpret as being able to print all levels of a category, like Level 1(top):Level 2:Level 3: Level 4 Computer Expenses:Software:Genealogy:DNA ...so using the Account Display Depth, if I set it to 4 I see all 4 levels and if I set it to 1 I see the amalgamated total for all Computer Expenses. I thought I could use the Cash Flow template and adjust it to my needs but I think the "Account Display Depth" is not working for me on the Cash Flow template... I set it to Level 1 expecting the primary category to be shown but it still shows all subsidiary levels in that category. Is there something I can "tweak" to get it to work properly for me? Is there a Transaction Report I can "add in" or create within my GC? [Reckon is the Australian version of Quicken from Intuit] Thanks!

Re: [GNC] Error deleting scheduled transaction split
I experience this in normal transactions as well. To your point regarding the strength of the anchor, I've found that clearing the fields in the split and tabbing off the end will allow you to delete that same split without raising the error.

Re: [GNC] Setting up a Transaction Report
I think you can accomplish this using the Transaction Report and adjusting the settings accordingly. Have you tried that?

Re: [GNC] Error deleting scheduled transaction spl
Are you going in via Actions --> Scheduled Transactions --> Scheduled Transaction Editor? I did with the Accounts Tab being the only one opened. Found a Scheduled Transaction with four lines (splits). Deleted one line with no errors. Cancelled. Opened up the Account Register corresponding to the line I was going to delete and went back into the Scheduled Transaction Editor and deleted that same line again. No Errors. Cancelled out as unable to duplicate on Ubuntu 24.04.1 LTS running GnC Build ID: git 5.9-57-g26e452bab7+(2024-10-27). Is there something special about that split? Has variables? If the above scenario isn't what your doing can you post the detail steps. I'm running with a cmake with -DCMAKE_BUILD_TYPE=Asan and -DCMAKE_BUILD_TYPE=Debug so I should be able to get a good stack dump if I can make it fail on Ubuntu.

Re: [GNC] Error deleting scheduled transaction spl
That same 'problem' arises when attempting to delete the 'anchor' split line in a register window. I think the 'anchor' split line is always defined as being associated with the current register, but if there is more than one split line linked to that register, which split is the anchor? Is this the case? Can the user 'jump' to the other account register and find that account split is now the 'anchor'? If the 'anchor' split was somehow visually identified in the register view there would be less mystery here. On Fri, Nov 1, 2024 at 3:23 PM Stephen M.

Re: [GNC] Error deleting scheduled transaction split
What I did was delete the problematic split by using tab to move between the fields and the delete key to delete the undesirable data, including the split account. > On 11/01/2024 7:09 PM PDT R Losey wrote: > > > Thanks.

Re: [GNC] Error deleting scheduled transaction split
Well, good, it's not just me, then. After I wrote the above, I realized that I could just re-create the correct register entry as a scheduled transaction, so I may do that.

Re: [GNC] Error deleting scheduled transaction spl
The transaction has variables, but the split I was trying to delete does not have any. There was another post saying that he duplicated my error on Windows. On Fri, Nov 1, 2024 at 3:22 PM Stephen M.

Re: [GNC] Error deleting scheduled transaction split
Thanks. How did one charge the account anchoring the scheduled transaction? I didn't think that the scheduled transactions were not anchored to any account until they are entered.

Re: [GNC] Error deleting scheduled transaction split
Richard, I can confirm the same thing happens on Win 10 Gnucash 5.9 and if you try it more than once on more than one scheduled txn Gnucash will crash :-) I think from memory I've handled this situation in the past by right clicking on the modified txn in the actual register and scheduling it again as a new scheduled txn without the offending split and deleting the original scheduled txn.
