[GNC] One accounting entry, two invoices

[Murugan Mariappan]

Could you please test the following steps in your environment to ensure this is what you're looking for:

1. Create Invoice 1 for Year One and post it against the appropriate income account.
2. Create Invoice 2 for Year Two and post it against the appropriate income account. If you prefer, you can duplicate the first invoice to save time.
3. Navigate to the Business -> Customer menu and select "Process Payment." Search for your customer.
4. You should see both invoices displayed on the screen. Select both invoices (use the Ctrl key to select multiple lines), choose the bank account where you will post the payment, and process the payment.
5. You should now see in your bank account a single entry with a split payment of two entries of 120 each.

Note: Please do not enter your fund receipt directly into your bank account.




Saludos Cordiales


Murugan

Subject: [GNC] One accounting entry, two invoices

Hi all,

in gnucash-de, noone knew the answer, so i ask here. I use the german
version of gnucash, so please excuse if a have the menus wrongly translated.

Chess club, non-profit. Account numbers from SKR49 which has been
standard for non-profit clubs until end of 2024.

A club member pays his membership fees for two years by a single bank
transfer.

I add the club member as a Customer.

I write two invoices, one for each year. Account is 2110 (membership
fees < 300€).

I book both invoices. Contra account is 0655 (claims from club matters).

In 0950 (bank account I), i have a split entry.
0950                    240€
          0655                   120€
          0655                   120€

Now i want to assign the payment to the invoices. I hoped that i could
mark the penultimate line and assign it to one invoice, then mark the
ultimate line and assign it to the other invoice.

But this fails. When i assign the penultimate line to the proper
invoice, the amount in the first line is set to 120€, and the last line
is cleared.

How can i assign the split payment to two invoices?

TIA
QNo
