Yes.  GnuCash has a 'scheduled transaction' feature.  If you put in ALL
of your scheduled transactions and make sure set things to create them
all, you will have a projected running balance.   And GnuCash will show
at the top of the register display the 'projected minimum balance'.  You
will have to exit and restart GnuCash to get the scheduled transactions
to be activated.  Make sure you have as current release installed as
possible -- there have been problems with some releases of GnuCash WRT
scheduled transactions.
