03:31:05 <oziostrige> I have a strange problem with v2.2.9 when I enter transactions it adds an amount for car expenses
03:48:31 <oziostrige> eg If I buy a packet of split pins and a drill bit from my hardware store, I open a new bill and fill in the 1st line. Split Pins EXPENSES:SPARE PARTS 1.00 $2.95, Taxable, Tax inc Tax table GST (10%)
03:51:23 <oziostrige> The second line is then filled in. Drill Bit EXPENSES:TOOLS 1.00 $2.85 with tax setting the same as line 1.
03:54:09 <oziostrige> The total in the lower left hand corner of the screen is $5.80 which is correct. I then post the bill and pay it from my bank account. Everything seems normal until I check the various accounts.
03:58:31 <oziostrige> Sorry I made a mistake. I pay it from ASSETS: CASH ON HAND not my bank account
03:59:01 <oziostrige> Cash on hand account shows a spend of
03:59:24 <oziostrige> $5.80 which is correct
04:06:15 <oziostrige> If I jump from here to Accounts Payable the transaction is recorded as a payment of $5.80 which also appears correct.
04:07:56 <oziostrige> However the next line in this account is recorded as a split totalling $5.80 in the bill column and when I open the split I find
04:13:09 <oziostrige> EXPENSES:TOOLS $2.59, EXPENSES:CAR EXPENSES 0.53, EXPENSES:SPARE PARTS $2.68 in the payment column and LIABILITIES:ACCOUNTS PAYABLE $5.80 in the bill column

06:44:39 <ozieostrige> My connection is quite unreliable for some reason, is there a gnucash forum?

17:18:06 <teluride> Hi.. have a question on reconciling imported transactions... I imported transactions from both my bank and credit card company. I had to manually assign the target account. I now see duplicate transactions for paying the card from the bank. What is the best way to resolve this? Thanks..

18:27:37 <gxti> teluride: when you do the second import, check the 'R' box for the transactions you already imported

18:38:34 *** Jimraehl has left #gnucash
18:39:30 <teluride> ahh.. does that exclude it from importing
18:42:09 *** Zoolooc has quit IRC
18:46:08 <gxti> teluride: it checks that the price is the same, then marks the imported account's end of the transaction as 'cleared'
18:46:44 <gxti> gnucash will do that automatically if it's *very* sure that the transaction is a duplicate, but i typically see no more than 1-2 a month actually auto-matched
