Bug with _UnrlzdGain category?
I want to use the _UnrlzdGain category (Investment Income) to track what my financial institution calls "Accrued Interest" (interest earned but not yet paid). When I print a report for _UnrzldGain EVERY investment transaction that I made is listed (and shown as _UnrlzdGain both in the NUM field, and the category field), even though they were NOT entered as _UnrlzdGain and do NOT show up as that on other reports.
Any ideas as to why this is happening, or a workaround to let me do what I want?

Choose another existing category, or create a new category of your own, to track "Accrued Interest".
You could create an Accrued Income account (not category), record the accrued income as a deposit to that account (income category of Interest), then when the payment is received, trasfer the cash from the Accrued Income account to the real account receiving the cash. Again, I find this too messy to be of interest (no pun intended) to me.
