Re: [GNC] Editing Scheduled Transaction

[Robin Chattopadhyay]

Dave-

I experimented a bit more based on your findings.

Additional steps to recreate:

Create new SX; close GnuCash; re-open GnuCash. Edit SX template transaction.

I tried:
*Create SX; edit template. Editing allowed
*Create SX; Run SX; edit template. Editing allowed
*Create SX; Run SX; Close/re-open Gnucash. Editing NOT allowed
*Create SX; Close/re-open Gnucash. Editing NOT allowed

Re: [GNC] Editing Scheduled Transaction

[DaveC49]

Robin,

I'm also using 3.1 on Mint 18.3. I have tried to duplicate your problem
without being able to. I am able to edit the fields in the template
transaction without any diffculty and I don't receive that error message at
all. I can create 2 scheduled transactions and edit them both at the same
time. If I try and edit an already open for editing transaction again it
just brings the open window to the front.

That message seems to indicate that you may have an instance of that
scheduled transaction open editing in one of the account register windows
that the scheduled transaction creates entries for at the same time as you
are editing the scheduled transaction in the. That would likely cause a
conflict as you could be changing the values in two places simultaneously.

Ah, sorry about that. It was clocking so long after I clicked submit the
first time that I thought I had done something wrong.

It's actually https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=796248. You seem to 
have hit "submit" twice somehow and made two, and I've closed the second one.

Correct. Only when editing an existing transaction in an existing SX.
Doesn't happen when adding a new transaction in an existing SX or when
adding a new SX.

Re: [GNC] Editing Scheduled Transaction

[Adrien Monteleone]

You said the work around is to delete and re-add, but does the re-add not 
generate the same error? Is this only when editing a previously defined SX?

I’ll admit I’ve only seen this error when actually trying to edit a real 
transaction in one account register when I was already “in” the same 
transaction in another related account register. (usually after a ‘jump’ menu 
instruction) I’ve never seen it in the SX editor.

Dealing with scheduled transactions in concert with this is a bit perplexing, 
other than to suggest, as a test to narrow down the cause, close everything but 
the Chart of Accounts, THEN open the Scheduled Transaction editor and see if 
the same error occurs.

At least, you’ve eliminated (or confirmed) other open accounts as the 
possibilities or causes.

Also, please report if you are using the XML or one of the SQL backends just to 
clear that up. (should there be a discrepancy)

For myself, all of my scheduled transactions are still working as expected, but 
all of them pre-existed my transition from 2.6 to 3.1. I’ve yet to create a new 
SX from the 3.x series and to see how it behaves. I also haven’t yet had a need 
to edit any of them.

Regards,
Adrien
