Tips on data input

[Chris Henderson]

Wondering if people would share some of the ways they enter data in
GnuCash. I would like to know methods that are tried-and-true, easy to
follow and that would stick over the long-haul.

I used GnuCash solid for about 6 months two years ago and given up
because of the tedious and laborious nature of entering data about
various expenses and fund transfers from one account to another. I had
a physical file folder where I used to collect all the receipts and
used to write down various expenses incurred from various accounts for
myself and my spouse. At the end of the month, I would enter the data
in GnuCash. But it was tiresome. Most of our transactions were using
cards but some were on cash.

I am currently using GnuCash version 2.4.11 on OS X Mountain Lion.

Thanks.
