My wife often pays for our children's expenses (e.g. tuition fee in Aug 2018, doctor visit in Oct 2018) with her own money then after ~2-3 months (e.g. Jan 2019) gives the receipts to me for reimbursements. How should I record this? I want to be able to produce report of monthly expenses as they are incurred (tuition fee in Aug and doctor visit in Oct) and also want to record my cash flow (reimburse my wife in Jan). The obvious thing is something like:
2018/08/01 child tuition fee expenses:children:tuition fee $200 liabilities:wife 2018/10/01 child doctor visit expenses:children:doctor visit $100 liabilities:wife 2019/01/01 reimburse wife liabilities:wife $300 assets:savings:bank Is there a shorter way, e.g. if ledger lets me put in transaction date and statement date in one entry. -- --- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Ledger" group.
