count template as transaction in credit card preview/statements

[Clement Lam]

I don't know whether the problem has been raised out before. I'm sorry if it has as I haven't read the old posts.
I found that the statements and month preview of the credit card blotter shows an extra transaction that didn't appear in the blotter. In fact, there was no such transaction. After reading the backup file, I guess the problem is due to mis-treating the template as transaction when generating the month preview and statements.
I'd be glad if the problem can be fixed shortly. Many thanks.

When calculating credit card statement balance, credit transactions get included in the balance and with the wrong sign. Example, if my balance on the January statement is GBP 500, I make GBP 250 transactions during the February period and pay off the GBP 500 balance, the financisto statement shows:

Credits GBP 500 (correct) Debits totalling GBP 250 (correct, but no sub-total shown) statement balance GBP 750 (incorrect). Suggest statement should include following entries to make it correct:

Balance on Last Statement (GBP 500), Credits GBP 500, Debits totalling (GBP 250), New Balance (GBP 250).

Alternatively do not count the credit item into the balance.

David,

I have the solution in my branch but still did not commit it. As soon as
possible I will submit my code for tests and validation.
Sorry the delay.
