If one opens both the preferences dialog and a scheduled transaction one can clock on "Use formal accounting labels" in the preferences dialog and see the change reflected immediately in the template transaction in the edit window. This only works if one doesn't select one of the fields for entry of a formula, though - if one does that then the headings change to "Debit formula" and "Credit formula" (ie, the headings as with formal accounting labels selected). > "Funds in" does not increase the amount in the account for all accounts; > for example, if you put money "into" a liability account, the result is > that the balance goes *down*. > Likewise, expense/income accounts behave "backwards" from what some > people expect. One of the things I'm doing that produces a result I don't expect is that the amount removed from an asset account is being presented as a "credit" so I don't think that's what's going on here, at least not entirely. > > One option would be to let the user edit scheduled transactions in the > > context of an account, giving the view normally given for the account. > That seems to be a rather huge change in the way they would work, since > nothing of the kind currently happens.
