08:48:43 <chris> any objections to deleting the 'canonically-tabbed display/subtotal option? existing reports using it will just switch to the default 'do-not-show'
08:54:41 <warlord> chris, sorry, I'm not sure I understand what option you are proposing to remove?
09:07:09 <chris> the subtotal option in many old reports eg balance-sheet Display/subtotals
09:09:50 <warlord> I think many users like to display the subtotals.
09:20:07 <chris> it's the 'canonically-tabbed' one that's very faulty; there's still be option to view subtotals
09:20:29 *** omnireq_ has quit IRC
09:20:41 <chris> there's 3x3 matrix for subtotal options; many are redundant. my proposal will reduce to 3x2, still lots of redundancy.

09:21:10 <chris> (immediate-bal recursive-bal omit-bal) * (show-subtotal hide-subtotal canonically-tabbed)
09:21:32 <chris> I doubt any use the canonically-tabbed one
09:21:58 <warlord> You could ask on -user and see if you get a response.
09:22:15 <warlord> IMHO we should not remove features that some users may depend on.
09:22:23 <warlord> (without asking if people are actually using them)

09:25:32 *** sbluhm has quit IRC
09:25:41 <warlord> That was to -devel, not -user
09:26:01 <warlord> I don't object to removing redundant configs, or configs that might lead to wrong results.

18:28:20 <TownsendHardware> Warlord, are you online?

18:40:27 <TownsendHardware> Warlord, we've nearly fixed our blunder, but it uncovered a behavior I need to ask you about. Clicking on a pre-payment and clicking "OK" creates a refund in the bank account (which makes sense, there was no balancing bill). So we deleted all the refunds, which restored the pre-payment items in the Process Payment window. We then started matching payments with bills.
18:42:34 <TownsendHardware> When we completed the process for 2019 we discovered a $1.35 refund owing (meaning we'd overpaid somewhere along the line). This was great because it matched the vendor's billing statement. So we clicked "OK." We saw what we expected to see: a pre-payment of $1.35. What we didn't expect to see was a Bill, automatically created, for $1.35, which gets in the way of everything balancing. Is that a bug?
18:49:33 <chris> use the vendor report in the experimental submenu.
18:54:19 <TownsendHardware> Chris, are you writing to me?

20:14:42 <warlord> TownsendHardware, I'm afraid you've reached the limit of my knowledge of the current detailed workings of the payment dialogs. If there is any chance you could be online during European work hours, gjanssens can help you.
20:15:31 <warlord> @tell gjanssens Can you help TownsendHardware with his question? See the logs from 18:40 US/ET on Feb 11.
20:15:31 <gncbot> warlord: The operation succeeded.
20:15:49 <warlord> TownsendHardware, I've asked him to take a look when he gets online (tomorrow).
