Is it safe for a single user to run simultaneously two different instances of
GC on two different books?
If so, what settings are shared between them and therefore must be the same? I
can think of all the general settings, which mostly seem to be preferences
about overall features like whether

I am trying to create a book that includes within it records for two top-level
entities that are closely coupled. For example, consider Family and Sole
Proprietor. Within each, I of course want the normal subaccounts (assets,
liabilities, equity, expenses, income) with their various subaccount

Sorry to have left out that detail: no, there are no tax issues to consider in
my particular case.

I am looking at the transactions exported from a GC (v5.0 Mac) book. It seems
that there are a number of duplicate records in the exported file. Why would
that be?

OK, I found what appears to be the way to access document links in the code
(see libgnucash/engine/Transaction.cpp). It seems that the attached patch
(untested) will add the transaction link to exported files.
However, I’m much less certain how to make the import code handle the extra
field.
As I was exploring export file issues recently, I realized that the export file
lacks the document links. Consequently, an export + import will not round-trip
the data and regenerate the original book. It seems it would be desireable for
that to be possible.

It is, however, possible to use relative paths to the linked files. Then they
should be accessible on any machine as long as the root path is set
appropriately on each.

Is it really the case that the _only_ impact of account type is to change the

Thanks, John. For the benefit of me and everyone else, let me make sure I get
this correct as a procedure to follow. See questions below.

I am trying to revisit some reconciliations that may be incorrect. Is it
possible to set the reconciliation start date? Where is the start date kept
and how is it controlled?
