How to generate trans. automatically.

[David T.]

David--

INAA, but...

Moreover, if I were you, I'd have the credit card charge for petrol balance
against some account like Expenses:Auto or Expenses:Auto:Fuel 

That transaction then would look like:
Date         Description   Account
19 May 2008  Big Petrol    Liabilities:CCard        50 
                           Expenses:Auto:Fuel           50

And then:

Date         Description         Account
10 June 2008 Pay off that debt!  Bank:Savings       150
                                 Liabilities:CCard      150

Later, you'll be able to see how much money you've spent on petrol.
