[GNC] Stumped on Mortgage Asst - Screenshots

All,

     Please help if you can. I think I've documented with the shots 
required, but if you want to see something else, sing out. Somewhere I 
am missing a very basic concept. I'm trying to use the assistant to 
create a scheduled transaction. The file names describe each step. The 
file and CoA are dummies until I grasp this concept and move on to 
putting my 401kk of MUFUs into the tool.

- I've used my current statement, due 1 July to match up a amortization 
website to show the P&I due on 1 July. Amounts and start dates in the 
assistant are configured to match those amounts. Curiously, the website 
and my statement show a different remaining balance, but that is outside 
the scope.

- I step you through my assistant.

- In the end I show you the result of the assistant, which shows the 
correct P&I. Escrow is wrong, but I'm sure I can fix that in the editor. 
I'll accumulate escrow each month and then schedule a payment from 
escrow asset to tax and insurance expenses once all the above works.

- I let GnuCash enter the created transaction (ignoring from birth of 
the loan) and the transaction for 1 July 2022 is actually the P&I for 1 
May 2035.


TIA
