When creating a new file, selected categories are given the start date of (todays date). If I import any bank transactions that occurred before (todays date), I cannot assign them to categories, as the transaction date is before the categories creation date. Reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1.create new file 2.enter any transaction that occurred before the date of the file creation 3.attempt to assign a category to the transaction Actual Results: amount shows in red and the enter button is greyed out (cannot record transaction) Expected Results: I would expect the category start date to be the same of the account opening date

Hello! I am also affected. KMyMoney 4.7.2 KDE 4.14.8 Linux 3.16.7-7-desktop openSUSE 13.2 (Harlequin) (i586) - Date of the account's opening: 2015-01-01; - Date of the transaction I try to add: 2015-05-16; - I'm trying to add this today: 2015-06-07; One or two transactions went through, but most of them don't. Since I'm a beginner with this program, I can't say for sure why. I get the error mentioned in bug: 347436 "Cannot enter transaction with postdate prior to account's opening date." The date is displayed in red. I'd like to up-vote this, since it makes adding transactions impossible (unless you use workarounds, of course). Thanks, Bartosz
Usage of opening date information for categories has been eliminated completely. See https://bugs.kde.org/show_bug.cgi?id=313793#c41 for details. This also resolves the problem mentioned here.
