I don't have this problem, but perhaps Fran might be interested. They're the OP on this thread. Kind regards, Greg Feneis On Tue, Oct 13, 2020 at 9:15 AM elvis wrote: > Hello Greg, > > I encountered this exact same problem. > > > The way

The purpose of the Business Features is for accruals in order to adhere to the "Matching Principle" of accounting. If you go to the local convenience store every afternoon and buy a candy bar, you'd just record that as a regular transaction. (and benefit from using Duplicate Transaction or

Re: [GNC] Data Entry Overload - Create Bill + Post Bill + Pay Bill vs just Pay Bill?

Hello Greg, I encountered this exact same problem. The way bills are entered just does not scale for someone doing more than home entry, or doing it because they love it. 50 mouse clicks to record buying a Mars bar just isn't viable if you have more than a Mars bar a week. I have a small

Yes, but keep in mind that I don't purchase anything for resale. Kind regards, Greg Feneis (Pixel 3) On Fri, Oct 9, 2020, 16:17 Fran_3 wrote: > So Greg, you don't post any Bills to Accounts Payable? Electric & Utility > bills. Rent or whatever? > > You just post the payments... is that what

I'd think that invoices are much more useful than bills. Because I send invoices and want to track being paid; as a customer I send (usually future dated) payments on time (or dispute them) and don't need to remind myself. On Sat, 10 Oct 2020, 7:20 am Fran_3 via gnucash-user, <

Re: [GNC] Data Entry Overload - Create Bill + Post Bill + Pay Bill vs just Pay Bill?

So Greg, you don't post any Bills to Accounts Payable? Electric & Utility bills. Rent or whatever? You just post the payments... is that what you are saying? Thanks On Friday, October 9, 2020, 12:15:25 PM EDT, Greg Feneis wrote: I don't use this process at all. Everything my business

My rule is to create bills for everything which is a receivable for the vendor. (not an immediate sale) So if I get an invoice from them, and have to issue payment, I create the bill. In this case, while it seems you're dealing with an immediate sale, if the payment fails for some reason,

Posting Bills allows you to keep track of AP and provides data to the Bills Due Reminder... However some routine expenses may just get paid without going through the steps of creating and posting and paying a bill. For a small venture posting bills can require a lot of keyboard time... even
