Description sebastien.gillard 2010-12-19 17:40:11 UTC
Version:           4.5.1 (using KDE 1.2) 
OS:                Linux

I have created loan and specified a value for interest rate (different than 0)
The amount of the loan is not equal to 0 too.
After the creation of the loan, I can see the scheduled transactions created for this loan. But in these transactions, the value for the interest category is equals to 0.




Reproducible: Always

What is the actual balance of the liability (loan) account shown in the account overview? I bet it is 0. You need to add a transfer into an asset account from that liability.

E.g. if you bought a house on a loan then create an asset account for the house and transfer the money from the loan account to the asset account.

Ok, thank you.
I have retry to create a loan with a transfer into an asset account and now it is working.

I think it will be good to improve the dialog box. Maybe the transfer to an asset account must be mandatory ? Because if the transfer is not created, it doesn't work!

I can confirm this, the suggested fix, and the confusion it causes with 4.5.2.

Made it a wishlist item to improve user notification to avoid confusion.
