GNOME Bugzilla – Bug 793147
Buttons & menu entries for A/R & A/P special business accounts should not allow direct editing
Last modified: 2018-06-30 00:04:06 UTC
As noted in a gnucash-user thread here: https://lists.gnucash.org/pipermail/gnucash-user/2018-February/074454.html, there are several toolbar buttons (and menu entries) which allow for the direct editing of register entries in the special A/R and A/P account registers used by the business features which can produce problematic results. Similar to the option to enable special business feature buttons, there should be the option to disable buttons/menu entries to prevent the direct editing of these accounts. (these functions should not be removed entirely, as some may have use for these accounts without using the business features and may need or desire direct editing and are aware of the consequences) So far, this is the list of relevant buttons/entries: Buttons: Duplicate Delete Enter Cancel Blank Context Menu & Transaction Menu Entries: Duplicate Split Delete Split Remove Other Splits Enter Transaction Cancel Transaction Blank Transaction There are also three additional Transaction Menu entries that may be candidates: Void Transaction Unvoid Transaction Add Reversing Transaction
