A negative credit is a positive debit and vice versa. If you try
entering a negative, you'll see GnuCash moves it to the other column
as a positive anyway.

Just buying into the tail end of this discussion.
I used to sell and support a commercial package (mid-range, solid,
double-entry, Windows platform only, it's now called Sage Pastel) which
used the Btrieve file system for its database.

benefit from those features. I'd go for the UPS, but since recent financial
activity is generally pretty easy to recover and re-enter maybe the
risk/payback works out differently for you.

The modern MacOS is pretty amazing at preserving work in most apps now even if
you have not saved to disk. I have shut down my computer with unsaved changes

I don't understand why. I can't think of any other software I use that

At least on the Mac, there’s no guarantee that it is physically written to disk
immediately. I’ve experienced a handful of posted and printed invoices
disappearing due to a power outage. Probably less likely to happen on a system
with an SSD drive, as there’s not as much reason to wait to flus

Leaving a transaction edit 'pending' by moving to another transaction
without 'committing' it by pressing the Enter key allows the user to work
on every part of the transaction before 'saving' the final transaction to
the data file. Further, the data file in the xml form, like any other text

Yes, there are different levels of data storage, per se. There are:

* Commit -- the data is sto

I think the best approach is either:-
1 - Record the amounts in their different categories as required,
e.g. 'collection' or 'offertory box' and simply record the same
paying-in slip number against both transactions.
2 - Have, as you suggest, an intermediate "Undeposited Fund

I noted this earlier but maybe a separate thread would be better.
I've read through quite a bit of the Help but it doesn't really seem
to address this issue.
When does data entered get saved? Also are there different 'levels'
of save as it were?
It seems to be as follows but I'd like to be sure
Is this what you are looking for?

Is there a way to get a simple sequential list of all transactions in
all accounts?
I noticed a transaction with an incorrect date (I hadn't "moved it
back" to the right date when entering the year's figures from a manual
system) but didn't correct it immediately. I needed a way to find it
