I opened a new account the 2015/07/23, but created my KMyMoney file today (2015/05/08). I changed the account's opening date to 2015/07/23, but it didn't change the categories opening date (still 2015/05/08). So I can't create a transaction between the account's opening date and today. If I change the category's opening date to 2014/07/23 (like the account's opening date), I can create a transaction. Reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1. create a new account 2. change its opening date in the past 3. create a transaction with a date between the account's opening date and today. Actual Results: * An error message appears : "Cannot enter transaction with postdate prior to account's opening date." * the "Enter" button is desactivated Expected Results: I can create a transaction The error message is wrong : the transaction is not prior to the account's opening date but prior the category's opening date. Why the categories have an opening date ? Is it really useful ? I think the categories shouldn't have an opening date, by default. But if necessary, the user can add an opening date (posterior to the account's opening date, of course).

Please take a look at this discussion https://bugs.kde.org/show_bug.cgi?id=313793#c25 I also think this is regression and the user should make the decision whether it is automatic or not.
