Scheduled Transactions

[Ronal B Morse]

The easiest way I've found to do this for my checking account(s) is to 
just go ahead and enter the future transactions into the register with 
the expected date of execution.

The easiest way I've found to do this for my checking account(s) is to 
just go ahead and enter the future transactions into the register with 
the expected date of execution. You get a bold separator line between 
current and future transactions...makes it easier to see current 
balance, but the last line of the register will show a projected balance 
after future transactions take place.  Not as convenient as using the 
scheduled transaction feature, but it's more important to me to know how 
much I can spend now and still cover outstanding commitments.
