Hi there, I am doing some bookkeeping and I went to add two new
transactions by right clicking a current transaction and selecting
duplicate traction.

This usually works rather well.
I changed the date and added amount but do not see the transactions in the
account GL.  However, the amounts did get posted as I see the total dollar
amount has changed.


Question:
1) how do I find the two transactions so I can delete them?

Look for a transaction with a really early date (you entered 2 digit year rather than 4 digit year).  Or, attempt to reconcile on of the involved accounts and look for an entry with a strange date.

2) Is there a better way to make a new transaction in an account GL
instead of duplicating a transaction and changing the data?

I usually just start typing an entry and if the system sees one with exact same leading portion it will offer that up as an easy to accept completion.  This will generally give me the additional line items (splits) and I just have to change the amounts.  This also allows me to then edit the initial description (such as an order #) after I've accepted all the splits.

Merci,
