#2 - I forgot to make clear that, no, unchecking the Active box does not hide the bill from the Due reminder. You'll have to also unpost it for that effect. You can of course re-post later with the original due date if you like. The Active checkbox, I think, will only hide the invoice from a

1. If you really don't want to see it with the original due date - yes. There is no way I'm aware of to 'bump' or hide an invoice from that dialog. Note, the columns are all click-to-sort. It is sorted by date by default with the oldest date first. (not sure if that helps) I can see a use

That depends on the method used. OFX imports of well formed data do not import transactions more than once because each transaction has a unique identifier. QIF imports and CSV imports depend on 'training' to recognize duplicates because there is no unique identifier in each transaction. On

I'm not 100% clear on what you are trying to change, but here's how the Budget Module works: You can set child amounts. Those will automatically roll up to the parent. If you set anything at all for the parent, even 0.00, then that is what you will get. It then ignores the child accounts as

Hi, The idea is that you may have multiple invoices to the customer, so when you bill back an item, GnuCash gives you the flexibility to choose how and when you actually include the chargeback item on an invoice. You may have a reason not to include a chargeback *immediately*, so it defaults to
