Transfer are not included in forecast, balance mode

[scb]

When you have a planned transaction that occurs every month and it is a transfer from one account to another, it seems that it is not used in the forecast calculation for future months.

The transfer that i'm doing is from a standard account to a savings account, and i would like to see both of them.

Even if i include the transfer filter the next (future) projected months still remain at a constant value (value from the last that month, green check mark on both accounts for the same transaction) where they should change every month increasing one account and decreasing the other.

I've already posted a question about this but never got an ansser: https://answers.launchpad.net/homebank/+question/707891

internal xfer are excluded by design, as from an overall point of view moving its own money, still remains your money.
there is a recent option to bypass this for the statistics report
but not for others, nor the main window report.

I suppose you are talking of the main window time report ?

I was talking about the statistical report and the Time/balance mode view, and yes you right your money, however people do use multiple accounts for a reason.
And since i'm also talking about a savings account that is the bare minimum to see any kind of changes in the long term.
If it bypassed only in the statistics report then I'm totally fine with that.

Also a nice addition would be adding a type of transaction that would add compounding interest to that account based on a % value of the current balance of that account, not just a flat out monetary value.

I'm guessing that would be simpler solution then adding that % value to the account definition itself since interest for a account can change over time so additional time element would have to be taken in to account. And that would be already handled by the transaction.
it work more or less like -> On the day when the trx is scheduled, check balance and roe example 5% of that balance book in as interest (perhaps even taking in to account the income tax from that operation, but that might be asking for to much :) ).

I will test this, as it seems there is no xfer filtering when computing forecast, so it should display.

when option is set to include tranfer are taken into account in forecast.

hmmm maybe i'm doing something wrong

Just to clarify
- I have 2 accounts 1 savings account and one standard account
- I have 2 scheduled operations defined for savings account.
    - Transfer from the standard account to the savings account (once a month)
    - Income of interest to the savings account (once a month).

In the screenshot Forecast_01 is the standard view (limited to only the 2 accounts) with no changes to the operation type in the filter.

What i'm expecting to see (after the including the filter for the Transfer) the the "Blue" account bar gradual increase every month.
The only increase i can see it from the scheduled Income transaction.

Now in the Second screenshot Forecast_02 the Transfer is included. (most other combinations of the filter give the same resault as the first screenshot).

For some reason i suddenly have less money in my main account but the "Blue" savings account still remains the same no increase in value from the transfer.

Can you Please exaplain how the filter should be set up to view the increse on the savings account from the scheduled transfer ?
I can make another screenshot after i select the filter the way you suggest.

I checked this again and from my observation the transfer can be included but it seems that only the reduction of money on the "From" account is visible, there is no increase in the "To" account visible.
