Option for manual accounts to always force balance to $0 (edited)
It would be great if there was an option when adding a new manual transaction to have a corresponding & offsetting Balance Adjustment transaction get created alongside it — instead of having to separately add the balance adjustment afterward.

Sure thing. I have a Manual account set up where I can enter transactions where I have expenses that outside of typical credit card tracking — usually paid with cash on hand or Venmo, for example. When I add a transaction to that Manual account, it creates a (negative) balance in my Net Worth. I then create an offsetting Balance Adjustment to zero out the Manual account's balance.
Does that help?

Thanks! I see you changed the title. Were you thinking this option would exist at the account level or the transaction level? I guess a separate option would be to have a Manual account type or option where there is always a zero balance (e.g. a transaction-only account). Thoughts?

Should we edit the title then? Perhaps:
