Chris,
If you create a document with a word processor (Word, Writer etc) and then cut
and paste the receipts into it in the desired order to match the lines in the
expense voucher then
with the voucher open click on the BUsiness->Manage Document Link in the menu
and add the link to the document
Chris,
The current document linking only appears to be able to link a single file to
the expense voucher and not a file to each line. One way to do it would be to
include the individual receipts numbered in a document and link that document to
the voucher.

It may be because I have a lot of experience and training in accounting,
but it seems to me that using different terms depending on the account just
adds to the confusion. To me, using just "debit" and "credit" is a lot
easier - but one must understand three accounting basics:

This is what I have done, and it's been helpful to me.

I may start entering expenses. I have set up an account hierarchy tree and now
I want to assign expense accounts to specific transactions that I made with my

That is a good idea.
To give some context, without explaining everything: One week ago, I was

Have you considered breaking down your project into smaller projects with
simpler milestones and goals?
For example, first, install a prebuilt older release of Gnucash and see if
it works with a data file in the conventional XML format stored either in a
subdirectory under your Home folder
Hi All,
Great to be using GNUcash for a small kayaking club in the north of
England! I'm finding the software pretty easy to use so far, except for
being able to attach receipts to expenses claims.
My workflow is to raise an expenses voucher for an "employee's" (i.e.
member) expenses claim, and
