My workflow is remarkably similar but my transactions are marked as "y" when they get reconciled :-) I wouldn't mind also being able to flag a transaction as 'p' = pending for the pending credit card transactions and 's' = scheduled when I have scheduled a future transaction in online banking but

Thanks all. I don't understand the difference between "cleared" and "reconciled" in Gnucash context. Someone mentioned that one changes R from "n" to "c" when they see the charge in their bank statement or online banking. How is that different in terms of information flow from using the
