Re: [GNC] Setting up Government Bond

What I read is to *not* set it up as a stock or fund, but rather just 'Asset'. Enter the purchase price. Record interest as it is accrued or at cash-out. No need to hassle with price-per-unit. If you buy another of the same bond and want to track them all in the same account, just add another

Our Legislature has set up at least 2 of those per year, and they can always do another or more one-offs. And at that, they aren't 'general' holidays. They only apply to the State rate, (and maybe not all of it at that) and then only to specific goods, and then not for written sales, but

The question is more likely one of 'when does the sale take place?' And for many jurisdictions, it takes place when 'good delivery has been made.' (when the revenue is earned, payment is irrelevant here) 1. So if you walk into a store, and walk out with goods, (paid or on credit) the point of

No, there are only 2 ways to generate invoices: 1. Manually, either by keying them in by hand, or using the Duplicate button with one already open. 2. Importing a CSV. If you have more than just a handful to repeat, I'd opt for the CSV route. If the data is always the same, you could craft
