I agree with the entries, but I would make them a new transaction, dated the day of the refund. I don't like the idea of retroactively changing a transaction. To me, each real-world event should be one transaction, with however many splits are needed, and the purchase and the return are different events. -- Stan Brown Tehachapi, CA, USA https://BrownMath.com https://OakRoadSystems.com _______________________________________________ gnucash-user mailing list gnucash-user@gnucash.org To update your subscription preferences or to unsubscribe: https://lists.gnucash.org/mailman/listinfo/gnucash-user If you are using Nabble or Gmane, please see https://wiki.gnucash.org/wiki/Mailing_Lists for more information. ----- Please remember to CC this list on all your replies.
