Hi,
(Sorry being late here, I'm not watching gnucash-user mailing list).
In general the suffix idea looks like a nice workaround – but I'd like
to throw in my two cents.
1) There are securities like these ETFs: MVOL.L or ISLN.L – they are
traded in USD.
2) If the suffix idea get implemente
That seemed to fix it for me.
Thanks.

More imagination?
A person is making purchase with a credit card and that has processed,
but tells the sales person oops, I meant to use this other credit card*.
Sales person reverses the first and then re-enters with the second
credit card.
The point here is that the credit card statement
Yes, I use this feature a lot when purchasing bonds in bond market.
In my case, first I deposit money say 2500 with broker, then I buy bonds
say worth 2100 (21 bonds worth 100 each) and by end of the day I get 400
back in my bank.
This I note down (simplify) as a single transaction with 3 spl
Scott,
Did you perhaps get the balance to 2M VND in small increments so that the USD
value of every transaction rounded to $0.00? That would have prevented the
price from being recorded, resulting in the symptoms you describe. If you've
been trying to use VND for several days you can look at t

I'm just going to speak to this part of the matter.
a) The way you enter a transaction via "split" is the original way all
transactions were entered. First into the "journal" and then posted to
the "ledger". When you are entering a "split" you are in journal mode

Been watching the replies to this with interest: there's a lot of
knowledge out there.
But, thinking about it, the problem that I ran across was that the two

A good, clear example why something like that should be allowed.
Ordinary users need examples like that to make it real to them (why
should NOT be disallowed even though very rarely needed). I would
perhaps just have pointed out that gnucash should not disallow something
that COULD be entered
You better use splits for such cases. There is nothing wrong even when a
few splits that goes to the same account: e.g. when you want for some
reason (for convenience) keep an items of the same bill separately in
your expenses account. Otherwise, when you would try to reconcile with,

Another strange thing: It might be starting to work normally now: I just
entered a couple of transactions and accidentally entered the exchange rate as
23,600 instead of 1/23,6000. Now it's starting to show the dollar equivalent on
the Account Summary, even after I went back and corrected the ex

Dear fellow Gnucash users,
I have a strange problem with a new currency account that I just added the
other day: I created a cash account for Vietnamese dong (VND), and somehow it's
