Nope. I am convinced that GnuCash randomly switches splits on me so
that the transaction is reverse of what it should be. At least that is
the theory on which I am standing firm at this moment.
This was driven home recently while searching for a missing $80
transaction. If I could find it then reconciliation of the bank account
would finish. I double checked each transaction twice! On the third
pass I wondered why that $40 expense was in the deposit column. Thought
I had duplicated that from an early event (which was entered
correctly). So, there is my evidence that GnC randomly switches the
accounts on splits just to mess with my mornings! I can't believe I'd
my such an elementary error (denying any PEBKAC issues).
