[GNC] Reconciling subaccounts

[Uttam Chakravorty]

My apologies Adrien, I will be more specific.  Line 2 - >Sales -> A/c No 01: all the subsequent lines starting '01-' are the subaccounts.  Reconciling 01 with subaccounts ticked will reconcile all of them, but only update 01's date field.  I then step through the subaccounts and as they are all already reconciled I just press 'Finish' to update their date.


Line 11 is a single entry with no subaccounts.


Line 12 is similar to Line 2, a Placeholder with three subaccounts.


I have tried to indicate the above in Column E, however I have made a mistake with Lines 64, 71 and 77.  They have no subaccounts, I annotated them in error as all the top level accounts are reconciled.  In terms of consistency I failed to annotate Lines 12, 17 and 59.  Looking back this is a scrappy piece of work put together in haste.  I hope you will be able to extract something useful, or I will happily do it again.  Please advise.



Line 18 (A/c code 5 (should be 05)) is particularly interesting.  This has subaccounts and they have Placeholders which have subaccounts i.e. three levels deep.  Reconciling the top level reconciles all the other levels, however once more it only updates the date at the top level.


I do not find it too onerous to live with this little extra keyboard activity.  I just wondered if I was doing something wrong again.


Many thank again, Uttam

Okay, so now we see the account structure, but now, can you give an  
example of which parent account you were trying to reconcile with  
sub-accounts that did not update their last-reconciled dates?

I have a very different one based on income and expenditure as in UK they have to file a personal annual Self-Assessment Return.  I hope this gives you the information that you require and should it help any others with their Gnucash Odyssey I will be delighted.
