Cheques and Reconciling

[Jochen De Smet]

While I was reading this thread I was reminded about
something similar but different I've been wondering
about.

Say I've got two accounts, the first a regular bank
account, the second on a credit card account (though
that doesn't really matter much).

Now when I make a payment from my bank account to my
credit card, I record this as one transaction from
bank -> credit card.

The money gets deducted from my bank account the day
I make the payment, but doesn't get posted to my
credit card account till 2 or 3 days later.

Since all transactions in gnucash are instantaneous, I
can only make the date of the transaction match up with
either the bank or the credit card statement, but not
both.

It's not really bothering me but if there's an easy
way to do this that I'm missing, please let me know.
