Thanks, Adrien! Just wanted to make sure I'm not missing something. I'm
not using the informal labels and, as you noticed, not using GnuCash

William,
If you Edit the account, you should see a checkbox for Auto Interest
Transfer. Unchecking it should prevent the pop-up next reconciliation.

I use the "Bank" account type. When I reconcile, it opens a popup window to
enter an interest payment. Sometimes I use it and sometimes I find it a
nuisance so I am ambivalent about the value of the feature, but it is there.
Best wishes,

There used to be a feature that allowed for adding an interest

I seem to recall it being problematic, and so I think it was disabled,

What difference does it make if I assign them account types of Cash and
Bank respectively, or just assign all three an account type of Asset?

Thank you David.
Would it be correct for me to assume that *any* account type can be edited
prior to the addition of any data?
Either way, it sounds like this can be an iterative process to an extent. And
that most negative consequences can be reversed with a little creativity.

Hi Simon,
I appreciate that perspective.
I have considered only only assigning only top level types, because if someone
is importing 25 or 30 accounts (INCOME/EXPENSES types should be much easier for
most users), going through and editing them isn’t that difficult.
But as I said earlier, the
FWIW, I have taken the perspective that if I don't know what
category/account to put something in, I don't guess, I put it in
"Unbalanced" and then ask someone who knows. As I understand it, there
shouldn't be anything in that category, so it's a big red flag that you
can't miss that this thing nee
Tim ,
In most cases if you get an account type wrong you can edit the account type and
its parent account from the account tree structure. There may be some
limitations associated with the type of the parent account which may have to be
worked around. In the worst case scenario you can create an a

You would normally create a COGS account as a sub account of Expenses, not
as a top level account in its own right.
