About auto-fill:
I have half a dozen categories for my grocery shopping, plus cleaning and
household utensils that I can buy at the same supermarkets. I shop frequently,
and I don’t buy big amounts, so there is a lot of variability. Putting the
supermarket name into the initial Memo field
Thanks Adrien,
After reading this thread, I have experimented with hovering over the dividing
lines in the header, then double clicking and it does indeed fix the problem of
columns too narrow to show all digits. Also, thanks for the explanation about

David C. answered your question about sorting.
And the others chimed in with personal comments on the auto-fill.
You can't turn it off, but you can stifle it as noted with an extra
character or so, tab over, then shift-tab to correct the extraneous
characters.
I too find the autofill a

You can double click a column header to auto-size it to contain all
digits/text.
Then drag the right-hand divider for the description to the LEFT—far

1. Hover the mouse over the column separator to the right of the 'Total

labels) as this is the column just to the left of the Balance column

If you haven't already, I suggest you start with the following sections

I missed the question about sorting by the reconciliation status. After
you have several months data reconciled, there is little need to sort that
way, as almost all the unreconciled items will be near the end anyway.
GnuCash has a View > Filter by > Status which you can use to (temporarily

I have to say that I am with David on this one. The autocomplete is one of the
most handy items that GnuCash has - IMO. Your rent or mortgage are usually the
same amount each month. If you are on any kind of budget plan - your electric,

Walter,
In my opinion the advantage of the auto-filled transactions is not the amounts
but that it adds lines for the required accounts. When you tab into the amount
columns it doesn't matter whether it is blank or filled with something from the
previous transaction. It is selected and when
I would say that it takes very little more time to type Ctrl-A in the
amount field before typing the desired amount. If you really don't want
any fields pre-populated, type some bogus character before the autocomplete
kicks in to prevent it from acting.
I don't have that issue in my workflow
Have two questions.
In Quicken I could sort by the reconcile column, but don’t find that in this
program.
In Quicken I could stop autofill (shortcuts) I don’t write checks or entries
for the same amount all the time. It is stupid to think that I go to the
grocery store and I buy something
I need to import bank data csv into Gnucash accounts.
So far with some limited success.
I am unsure from the user manual of the required column headings
in the import wizard screen.
If the data to be imported is say:

Thanks Derek, yes I've tried that. Unfortunately the data is just not there.
I think I'll go back and just dump the transactions, and do the tab
delimited file import instead. A few hours lost unfortunately. Cheers -
ABN Amro do not make it easy for customers to manage their own transactions!

I presume that you currently "expense" the loans. They really are not
an "expense" but a change of asset (from your savings account to a
receivable.
1. Add a new Asset account called "FaF Loans" (Friends and Family
Loans). Mark it as a placeholder.
2. Under FaF add a new account for each
Maf, thank you for your email.
The column lines are so close to the vertical bar the column (Charge and
Balance) lines just seem to blur together as one. There appears to be no
opportunity to "highlight" the balance column line
If I touch the line(S) I either get the symbol for expanding left

To reinforce what John said. I am also occasionally having issues with column
widths. Running 4.1.4 on MacOS 10.15.6. Sometimes the columns are not wide
enough to display all of the digits. Yesterday the cleared/reconciled column
was too narrow to see anything, just two vertical column
