Transaction Journal View - blank "Memo" instead of Description

[Derek Atkins]

Hi. 
Welcome to GnuCash. 
The transaction description is on the top line with the date. 
Each split line also has a memo field. This is what you see in transaction journal mode. 
There is also a note field, which is visible in double line mode. 
Hope this helps.
