Scheduled Transactions - Incorrect Dates Showing (Yr 1970??)

Hi there,

I've set up scheduled transactions to track payroll, running weekly (every
Friday) starting Sept '10 & they would be created 4 days in advance, in
order to correspond with someone being in the office to process them. That
was fine - when I started Gnucash up, the scheduled transactions that were
due (Sept - Feb) showed up under the various employee names. I'm just after
entering the data for Sept-Dec & marked the ones for Jan as 'Postponed' as
did not have the January info to hand. I marked them as postponed in order
to be able to create the other transactions (First of all I didn't do this &
the transactions were not created when I clicked 'OK'). These transactions
were created & allocated to the various accounts. However, now when I go to
Scheduled Transactions/Since Last Run I would expect to see the transactions
for Jan there, marked as postponed. But this is not the case - under some
employees there are no transactions at all showing & under other employees
the dates seem to be messed up....some showing Sept date (even though I've
already processed the Sept ones) & some showing dates back in yr 1970. Can
anyone shed some light on why this is happening, how I can correct it? (Fyi
I did look at the account reporting period settings, just in case it was
defaulting to 1970......it's not, the accounting period is set correctly as
01/09/10 - 31/08/11. ) I was hoping to get the Jan transactions done
tomorrow so then the system would be up to date, so if you have any
ideas/workarounds that'd help plse let me know. Thanks.
