Ah, I misunderstood. It's disabled in the Action menu when the placeholder
account's register is open and focussed. It does indeed work from the accounts

ACME trading account, so when it encounters the split for one in the first
transaction it creates an Orphan-AUD account and sets that as the account for
what used to be the trading split. Then it runs the balancing

After trying assist James Baxter to set up his Stocks, and mindful of
his sage advice to "see if we can do better", I thought to enhance the
"Stocks/add stock" section of the "Using GnuCash" Wiki with some

basics of headings, fonts, colors, and tables. That should be sufficient
for working with GnuCash reports. (there might be a few others, but this

Hi Jay. You are correct. A placeholder account as simply a "group" that
holds other accounts. You can certainly reconcile accounts that are
