That is actually harder than you think.
If you do not specify a date, you get today's date.
If you specify a number for the number of the day in the month you get
this month in this year (put in 2 and get 2nd October 2019
If you specify a number for the day, and a number for the month, you
get this year.

So the lazy entering of incomplete dates pulls you to the correct year.
(I know this can be changed in preferences, somewhere).


Nextly, the system does know the last balance at reconciliation. It
pulls that value in for the next reconciliation.

You can certainly type in transactions with no value, just a
description, and in that description put "Confirmed balance $123.45"
