17:26:31 *** wubrgamer has joined #gnucash
17:27:00 <wubrgamer> hey guys, i can't reconcile a transaction, it shows up as being unreconciled
17:27:21 <wubrgamer> and when i check the box to reconcile it, it grays out the "finish" button
17:27:30 <wubrgamer> so i cannot complete the reconciliation window thingy
17:27:33 <wubrgamer> what do I do?
17:33:11 *** warlord-afk is now known as warlord
17:33:32 <warlord> wubrgamer: did you enter the correct "ending balance" for your reconciliation period?
17:40:36 <wubrgamer> yes
17:40:46 <wubrgamer> wait
17:40:46 <wubrgamer> idk
17:41:09 <wubrgamer> if the balance is negative (because it's in an expense account, which is always negative right?)
17:41:15 <wubrgamer> do i enter that?
17:41:40 <wubrgamer> warlord:
17:43:48 <wubrgamer> warlord: ?
17:45:14 <warlord> You dont need to reconcile expense accounts.. only Asset and Liability accts
17:47:57 <warlord> reconciling expenses makes no sense. From where are you getting an "expense statement" against which you could reconcile?
17:49:17 <wubrgamer> i don't understand how this works to be honest
17:49:32 <wubrgamer> i've never tracked my money before
17:49:45 <wubrgamer> i'm really just learning how to do this for when i really need to know
17:49:47 <warlord> To Reconcile means to compare what you have with another statement.
17:49:55 <warlord> Have you read the docs?
17:51:41 <wubrgamer> so i'm confused
17:51:51 <wubrgamer> becuase i'm trying to reconcile an assets account
17:51:54 <wubrgamer> but it's not letting me
17:52:25 <warlord> "not letting [you]"?
17:53:10 <wubrgamer> yeah
17:53:15 <wubrgamer> i click reconcile in my cash account
17:53:24 <wubrgamer> and it's not letting me reconcile
17:53:30 <warlord> what do you mean?
17:53:53 <wubrgamer> oh
17:54:06 <wubrgamer> i have to set the date and amount on my balance sheet into the thing manually
17:54:15 <wubrgamer> money is confusing....
17:57:12 <warlord> No, you should set the date and amount from your bank statement.
17:59:14 <wubrgamer> warlord: yeah
17:59:21 <wubrgamer> warlord: but it is defaulting to the last statement
17:59:39 <wubrgamer> warlord: not the current one i have before me, i have to manually enter that into the little pre-reconcile-window prompt
17:59:46 <wubrgamer> warlord: i understand
17:59:53 <wubrgamer> warlord: don't I?
18:31:32 *** cortana has quit IRC
18:55:13 *** SamRose has quit IRC
19:33:46 <warlord> wubrgamer: yes. It will learn (after your second reconciliation) how often your statements come. But you'll still need to verify the date (and amount!)
19:35:25 <wubrgamer> warlord: thanks
19:35:33 <wubrgamer> warlord: i wouldn't have guessed that
19:35:49 <warlord> I believe it's in the docs

23:40:26 <fell> Hi, see I right, that I cannot move pages in the wiki?
23:40:26 <gncbot> fell: Sent 2 days, 6 hours, and 28 minutes ago: <warlord> not sure what you're seeing. Trac looks fine for me here. Are you perhaps behind a proxy that's (improperly) caching that page?
