What Derek said ,,,,,,, The "general ledger"is a record of transactions 
that have happened. Gnucash also can produce "budget" reports and ":cash 
flow" reports.

Is this some sort of situation where there is close to certainty that 
the rent WILL arrive as scheduled? That's the only situation where I 
might be tempted to make that an automatic scheduled transaction << say 
some agency is paying the rent on behalf of this tenant >>
