How to deal with the cash flow and the credit card.

Hi,

What is the amount you are looking for?
Personally I don't see the link between the liability of charges you've
made on the different credit cards and "cash in wallet".

Do you want to know how much you can still spend using all your credit
cards? AFAIK the maximum credit for a specific card is not stored in
GnuCash but perhaps some logic in a report could give you this.

Every purchase (charge) you make with a card is recorded as a liability
(something you need to pay later).
If you've set up all cards as sub accounts of liability:credit Card or some
other parent account that parent account would show the total you need to
pay but it would not take into account the different days you need to pay
those.
Also if a period is closed but you haven't paid the bill yet and you have
already made another payment with that card Gnucash would show you the
total and doesn't know how to split it up into different periods.

No need to apologize for your English just provide a bit more details on
what you are looking for.

Regards

Bram
