Yes, I see this because I am happily typing away without checking the
screen - say i'm looking at the receipt - and when I check the screen I
have got the wrong petrol station
Just for the experiment, I'm entering in a liability account where this
happens - I buy company fuel from my personal accounts, and it doesn't
happen if i am entering in the expense account or the asset account
