Somehow, I picked the wrong vendor when entering many bills in GnuCash, and posted them. I find that Vendor entry in the bill is not changeable, even after un-posting them. Is there a way, other than deleting and re-entering them, to correct this? Thanks Eric

Helmut, It isn't a matter of using securities on invoices. The Security Editor is simply where you set the smallest fraction of a currency. (and thus the number of digits displayed) John is proposing tying that setting in to be used outside of securities, in this case for invoices amounts
