Looks like, we need first to save the dbu file  after the account creation.  Then it works.

I think you need to create first an equity before you can add transactions to an investment account as shown with the appended test file.
Comment 3 Jack 2022-11-01 22:05:55 UTC 
You cannot create a transaction prior to the opening date of the account.  I believe the default opening date for a new account is the first day of the current month.  Because that problem is so common, and it is possible to import a transaction prior to the opening date, the consistency check will sometimes set the opening date of an account to an earlier date that it was.  Since a consistency check is run on saving the data, the is possibly the reason you can add the transactions after saving.  Also, with Ralf's comment - it may have been the opening date of the equity account and not the investment account which caused the problem.
