Created a sample company with a single account and tried to add a transaction to but there is no way to save the transaction since the ENTER icon is disabled and and if I try to go into any other operation it displays : "End Transaction Edit - KMyMoney: Please select what you want to do: discard the changes, save the changes or continue to edit the transaction. You can also set an option to save the transaction automatically when e.g. selecting another transaction. " and that SAVE icon is disabled and only the choice DISCARD is enabled. Reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1. Open Account Register 2. Add "From" CustomerA 3. Add amount of let's say "20.00" 4. No way to save. Enter is disabled. Actual Results: I can't proceed. Expected Results: Enter icon should be enabled and transaction should be added to register
Found the problem. I skipped account setup and noticed the opening date in the future. Now it's a minor bug but it should be noted during entering a transaction if an account is not ready to have items entered into them.
On my system the date is shown in red then and a tool tip explains why. Do you think this message should be shown more prominent?
Created attachment 91162 [details] Screenshot of tooltip and date in red In case the transaction date is prior to the opening date, the date is shown in red and a tooltip with an explanation pops up. Could be, that this is not in 4.7.1 but only in master.
Yes it should definitely be more prominent. I did notice the numbers in red but was scratching my head why thinking - It could have been that I needed more information. - That I didn't completely fill out all the company information - That the download was corrupted - That maybe it was the Win 8.1 operating system - That something else was locking the transaction file I went back to it a few times on a few different days running a couple different tests. Someway it should be more pronounced. Thanks.
I changed this to a wishlist item. Before we start to code we should contact the VDG. But maybe it is enough to set a tool-tip for the OK button.
Was anything ever done about this? In 5.1.2 I see the date in red and the (not always visible) tooltip. (who/what is the VDG?) Are there any pending actions, or should this be closed (with what status?)
Created attachment 147501 [details] Tooltip and widget when post date is prior to opening date of account Current master shows a red frame around the widget in this scenario and the tooltip explains the problem. Info about the VDG can be found on https://community.kde.org/Get_Involved/design
