Andre, Thank you for the response. For each two-week period within the quarter, did you just have to copy the budget entries from each column to the next? That is what I would like to avoid, if possible. I would like to use one budget so that it is easy to see carryover from one budget period to

Thanks for the clarification Geert, I’m going to follow your approach and say, “Let’s take a step back.” What exactly is a bank statement telling you? What are they tracking in their books? Why do you need a statement at all? As I noted in a previous reply (though that example was decades ago)

Geert, My opinion is much the same as Adriens' . The critical information you are verifying against a statement is: the timing (date and/or time) and amount of the split to the account being reconciled. Where data has been manually eneterd into GnuCash, the date may not be the same necessarily
