Re: [GNC] Nice to Have?
I think that I always have seen the full list of scheduled transactions (on an iMac using 5.3) when GC starts; most of them are empty; some have Reminder or Created tags. But I thought I always see the full list.

Re: [GNC] Nice to Have?
I always get all my Scheduled Transactions showing up in the dialog. I always check "Create automatically" and "Notify me when created" on and also set "Create in advance" to 60 days so I can tell at a glance what my upcoming cashflow looks like. So I might have 20 or so txns listed but only 1 or 2 will have the "created" notation, then when I click OK a new "Created" register tab opens with only the txns that were actually created listed in it. It's pretty obvious which txns were actually created and I think from memory you can click the Status header to group them all together at top or bottom. It used to annoy me seeing them all but I've just gotten used to it now and ignore the list of txns and just click ok which opens the register tab that only lists the created txns anyway :-) I've always assumed the OK / Cancel buttons on the dialog only relate to any fields you can change on the dialog which appears limited to the Show Created txns checkbox - i.e. turning off or on the option for future use ???

Re: [GNC] Nice to Have?
No Stan, they aren't talking about not showing them at all, but rather showing those not due to fire or due to be reminded, for that same day, in the Since Last Run (SLR) dialog. See the screenshot Grace posted. This isn't the editor, this is the SLR dialog. Also see my other post threaded under Derek's reply. I didn't see non-pertinent SXs until I played around with the checkbox to not remind me. (which initially worked) After resetting it, now I get all Enabled SXs showing up in the SLR and I can't make them go away.

If you have the txn set to "create automatically" then it has already been created by the time the Since-Last-Run display is produced. You can see it is marked "Created". "Cancel" won't change that, it's too late. If you don't want that to happen then uncheck "create automatically". Then you'll get a chance to decide what you want to do with it, and "cancel" does what you appear to want. ___ gnucash-user mailing list gnucash-user@gnucash.org To update your subscription preferences or to unsubscribe: https://lists.gnucash.org/mailman/listinfo/gnucash-user - Please remember to CC this list on all your replies.

It looks like that is what Grace is already referring to by the screenshot. I'm not even sure how to show all SX on that dialog, even those not set to remind or auto-create yet.

Re: [GNC] Nice to Have?
I take it back. There are global preferences under Preferences > Scheduled Transactions but as far as I can tell, the auto-create and notify window periods are only for 'new' SX as defaults. You can still individually change these. Regards, Adrien On 12/14/23 10:49 AM, Adrien Monteleone wrote: I don't think this is configurable for all transactions together.

Re: [GNC] Nice to Have?
Yes, that is called the Since Last Run dialog. You can also fire it manually under the Actions > Scheduled Transactions menu item. I just tested it on 5.4 and the behavior for me has not changed. If I untick the box to remind me, and there are no SX for today, instead of the list, I get a notice that there are none with an 'OK' button to dismiss the dialog. I never see a list with all of my SX shown. Only those that are set to remind and/or auto-create or due to be created show up. And as for the 'cancel' button creating them anyway, I do not observe that behavior *unless* that SX has been set to 'auto-create', and as you should observe, for those the Since Last Run shows 'created' for those SX. (and 'reminder' for those not yet fired) Regards, Adrien On 12/14/23 2:23 PM, Kalpesh Patel wrote: I think Grace means that when you fire up GNC, it displays scheduled transaction window which has all of the transactions configured in that book.

Re: [GNC] Nice to Have?
Don't hold your breath, but I believe the default behavior of the Since Last Run assistant will change with the next GnuCash update in a few days to be more user friendly. The comments from others about the various settings being confusing may still apply afterward, but there should be less clutter from SX"s that are not doing anything today.
