Sure, but that doesn't make it any less of a double-entry bookkeeping system.

The first is correct bookkeeping. The second is bad.

Regarding the process you suggest, each step in your workflow is a massive undertaking to build. And it serves exactly one (1) user for whom the workflow fits: you.

It's how I started Firefly III: solving my own problem. So I guess you know what to do ;)

Maybe let me formulate it a bit more diplomatic: It is not what I would expect from a double-entry bookkeeping system. Personally I find one account for each person more intuitive. There may be reasons for not doing this but they are not clear to me yet.

I know that implementing this process is not walk in the park. Please don't see it as a request for you to implement that particular feature because I need it. But for me this would solve an issue I had with all of the personal finance tools. Therefor I wrote down my thoughts, maybe they resonate with someone and it results in a fruitful discussion. Or maybe someone had similar thoughts...
