Using the internal grep and the quickfix window?
Here is function to get an idea:
(Assuming in the following sample, that the last word
in the current line is the entry in your cashbook
or else you can (possible) use: expand('<cword>'))
function! UpdateRecords()
let pat = get(split(getline('.')), -1, '')
if !empty(pat)
execute 'vimgrep /'.pat.'/j %'
copen
if &buftype == 'quickfix'
wincmd k
endif
endif
endfunction
imap <buffer> <Char-0x0d> <C-o>:call UpdateRecords()<CR><Esc>o
