Description Conrad Canterford 2002-11-05 02:25:23 UTC
The register now permits a transaction to have splits with different
commodities, but doesn't do the right thing to transfer the commodity over
when adding the split to other account. The transfer dialog does do the
right thing.

Note that currency accounts are no longer necessary to achieve the
transfer, but there is obviously some extra step required that is not
happening from the register, but is happening from the transfer dialog.

I have marked this major because the register just silently accepts the
transaction, but does not deal correctly. We either need to add the extra
step or re-enable (as a temporary measure only, I hope!) the check to stop
transactions from the register having more than one commodity.
This also applies to transfers to stock accounts - they are accepted but do
not do the transfer properly.

I suspect both cases are related to the use of prices (and the lack thereof
from the register).

Basic transfers should work now.  It doesn't remember transfer-rates
across entries, and there is no easy way to reset the transfer-rate on
a split, but it's progress (IMHO).

While there are still some bugs in the currency handling, I'm going to
close this bug and open new ones for the new bugs, to make sure they
are remembered.  The basic functionality is all in CVS.
