ADDITIONAL INFORMATION
Comment 1 Thomas Baumgart 2018-12-18 15:39:51 UTC 
Sorry, but there is a misinterpretation on your side. "Enter next transaction" is used to enter the next instance of a scheduled transaction.

How's this to be used:
1. set shortcut
2. select 'Scheduled transactions' view
3. select a schedule
4. Press shortcut

Observed result:
Dialog to enter next scheduled transaction is shown
Comment 2 Alexander Potashev 2018-12-18 15:51:51 UTC 
Hallo. Thanks for the clarification!

I seems that the action I need instead is "New" (Ctrl+Ins). However it only works in the Transactions tab. Is it possible to create a application-wide shortcut for this that would also work from the Summary tab?
Comment 3 Jack 2018-12-18 17:38:38 UTC 
I suppose you could create a wish-list bug (or change this one) to request a new action or to modify the "New" action to work even when the ledger is not currently displayed.  I suppose it would just be a combination of switching to the Ledger View and then invoking the new transaction action.  Creating a shortcut should then be straightforward.
