If you manually enter a transaction with today's date, does the next transaction you enter start with today's date or the other date?  New transactions generally start with the date of the most recent transaction which was entered.

You are correct.  The date changes to the last date I've entered.  This is working as you stated and I will close this "Bug".

Thank you for confirming.

BTW: Pressing the letter T takes you to today.
