04:38:27 * chris will attempt Account's KVP to implement "memory of reconciliation statement-dates and ending-balances". difficult part will be UI as usual.

09:34:28 <warlord> chris, the splits in the account already have reconcile dates...
09:34:54 <warlord> As for reconcile balances, what happens if a transaction changes and the computed balance != the stored balance?
09:50:19 <chris> warlord: nothing. you can still delete/add old transactions at leisure. the stored balance will then only be used to:
09:50:38 <chris> (1) populate the "reconcile info" window with old reconcile data so that we can re-reconcile
09:50:50 <chris> (2) write a custom report to use both data and highlight discrepancies.
09:51:05 <chris> it'll be a soft balance assertion, previously requested, and I would find useful.
09:52:31 <chris> makes sense?
09:53:02 <chris> use case: I can go through my bank statements, redo reconciliations: 31/06/2018 was $1449.49, 31/07/2018 was $642.29, and finally 29/02/2020 was $1045.00
09:54:01 <chris> tools > reconcile can then allow presets with old data. reconcile report can report which dates contain an errant split.
09:54:42 <warlord> BUT... If you use the stored balance as the starting balance, but the computed balance is wrong/different, then the reconcile will never finish properly.
09:56:37 <chris> agree which indicates an errant traction that can be fixed?
09:56:45 <chris> agree. this indicates an errant traction that can be fixed.

10:59:12 <chris> these old reconciliations are very reasonable soft balance assertions and will never be strictly enforced by the engine
10:59:53 <chris> if account->splits are sorted by reconcile_date then they should match bank statements perfectly
11:00:22 <chris> if account->splits are sorted by reconcile_date then they should match bank statements; and discrepancy=errant split.
11:00:33 <chris> do you see any flaw in this plan?

12:23:28 <jralls> warlord, what chris proposed yesterday on https://github.com/Gnucash/gnucash/pull/660 was to save the reconcile date and *statement balance* from previous reconciles to make it easier to re-reconcile after an edit unreconciled a transaction or if one finds a discrepancy in the starting balance of a fresh statement.
12:24:48 <warlord> ok

14:16:11 <fell> Chris, can you in future review the commit messages of merges. "Merge remote-tracking branch 'upstream/maint'" confused me at first, but it was a simple "merge branch 'maint'", if i right understood.
14:31:17 <fell> FWIW, jralls, Martin commited OFX1 in his git.
14:34:52 <jralls> fell, thanks, pulled.

17:13:13 <SorenV> .
17:14:01 <SorenV> Was wondering if there was a way to see the calculation from the budget surplus report on the budget window for the given period?
17:15:37 <SorenV> Or rather the the "Unallocated Assets" calculation from the "Budget Balance Sheet" report.
