as of today i've finally gotten one of my longest running accounts imported, balanced, working, it's beautiful!
only a few transactions missing from the era of hand written passbooks. i'm tempted to ask someone if they still have those records around and to see if i can find those to fill them in. what this journey has taught me is that if you want a good and useful history you may need to include more notes with the transactions. this one account history is useful, but it won't be nearly as useful as it could have been had i put a little effort into better notes for transactions. now i can move on to the next longest other history i have which does have more notes and more details but it is not complete either - yet it is better than nothing for my purposes. it is very satisfying to me to reach the end of a process and watching the stubs and shims get removed as things balance out and hook together. since my background is computers, programming, etc. it does all fit with that sort of analysis and breaking projects into parts and then testing the isolated parts and then filling in the gaps and putting things back together. i'm not surprised that it works, but satisfied all the same. :) fin -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Beancount" group.
