You might want to think about and then explain to us what you mean by 
"time of transaction" (within date).

This is the time (in that date) when the transaction took place?
This is the time of day when you entered the transaction? (possibly not 
the date the transaction took place)

For example, I often sit down with my checkbook and a number of bills to 
pay. I cut the checks, stuff them in the envelopes, stick stamps on, and 
mail them (make "constructive delivery"). Possibly that same day, 
possibly on some other day, I sit at the terminal and enter these into 
the books. Conceivably not in the same order I wrote them (gnucash will 
put into check number within date).
But I don't associate any TIME OF DAY with these.

Please, I am NOT meaning to suggest that you might not have some 
transactions (say credit card transactions) that are supplied to you 
with a time stamp. I am just saying that in general, transactions don't 
have "time of day" and this would be truly meaningless for certain kinds 
of transactions (for example, your end of year "depreciation" 
adjustments could be done in ANY order)
