[GNC] Fwd: automatic payment summary
Ah. Thanks. Now I understand. However, it seems the REVIEW CREATED TRANSACTIONS option is not working. I would think that if that is checked I should see a rundown of all the created transactions, but all I get is the notification window.

I personally have changed my preferences to only run the Since Last Run from the menu instead of on startup.

[GNC] Fwd: automatic payment summary
My bad. I meant to say SCHEDULED TRANSACTIONS instead of AUTOMATIC PAYMENTS. Anyway, I'm confused too. I would think that AUTO-CREATE NEW TRANSACTIONS should be checked since I do want them automatically created. I'm even more confused that turning that switch off will cause me to begin seeing the details pop-up. But, I did as Bruce suggested and will wait to see what happens.

Re: [GNC] How to handle (double-entry bookkeeping conventions?)
Simon When you made the sale you will have made an entry something like Assets: A/RDr xxx Income:Sales Cr xxx. To record the receipt of the money in your Paypal account and remove the amount from the A/R balance and the fees expense then the following entries will do the trick: Assets:Paypal Dr xxx-yy Expenses:PP FeesDr yy Assets:A/R Cr xxx(as a Payment against the invoice).

Hi Xe/GNUCash users, As this situation develops, maybe it is a good idea to cover the basics: What operating system are you using GNUCash on?

[GNC] How to handle (double-entry bookkeeping conventions?)

I would like to make an entry that shows money received by paypal, have that entry applied to the invoice, thereby zeroing out the corresponding accounts receivable, and in the same transaction, as a split, show the paypal fee charged against "Office Expenses" (that's likely not the best description, but I figure it should work mathematically, even if it would be perhaps better to create a "Bank Fees" or even "PayPal fees" expenses category.
