Lot link problems

[ItsGoneFunny]

Hello!
I've been using GnuCash for my business accounting for years and very smug
and happy I am about it too. I think it is an amazing package for free and
really flexible. Thank you very very much.

It has taught me all I know about accounting and I fear I may have
developped rather ideosyncratic methods (Accounts that make no sense to
proper accountants, but make great sense to me)

Just to say that I too was deeply puzzled by the Lot Links. Mainly because I
had never heard of Lot accounting and thought "Lot" was a typo for "Lost".
Therefore that something had gone wrong internally and hours spent trying to
rectify these imagined mistakes by deleting the links and reentering
payments invoices etc. I can confirm that while we are not supposed to be
looking at accounts receivable, we DO look. I even do wrong things like
putting an amount owed directly into account receivable, so that I can
remember that someone is supposed to be paying me.

Very glad to read the explanations here and know that all is well.

As mentioned by someone else: now I know that the Action -> View Lots place
exists, many of the transactions are dated 1833. 

Also during the recent chaos, I became very confused by whether an invoice
was posted or not. In the Edit Invoice dialog the "Post" button is always
live, even when an invoice has already beren posted.

Anyway, whinging apart, I am so grateful to you guys.

Helen
