... and it doesn't do *anything like* what I want.
I want a simple ledger not a double-entry book-keeping program.
*All* I want is a way to enter debits and credits into a single
account/ledger and show the balance. GnuCash is total overkill for this
and would insist on places to get money from, places to send money too,
a balancing transaction, etc.
What I want is to be able to do the following:-
2012-01-01 Initial Balance 100.00 100.00
2012-02-02 Buy hay -10.00 90.00
2012-02-10 Horsefeed -47.50 42.50
2012-03-01 Payment from Fred 50.00 92.50
This is absolutely all I want, just a simple way to enter the above data
and present it as a table. (Well, I want the computer to calculate the
last column, the balance)
My ideal way of showing this would be a 'grid' on a web page which would
show a blank row below the last entry into which one could type the next
row of data. I can produce something like this in MS Access but would
prefer Open Source and Web based if possible.
