<div class="gmail_extra">Greetings Users/Developers of KMyMoney,</div>
<div class="gmail_extra"><br>
</div>
<div class="gmail_extra">First off, let me say that I've been
using KMyMoney for nearly 10 years and I enjoy this program
very much. So THANK YOU to all of those involved in
creating/maintaining this wonderful program. I'm currently
running KMyMoney 4.6.4 on KDE 4.13.3 (Kubuntu 14.04.2 LTS).</div>
<div class="gmail_extra"><br>
</div>
<div class="gmail_extra">In all that time, I have of course, had
several car loans, mortgage refinances, credit card accounts
that have come and gone, checking/savings accounts that have
come and gone, etc.</div>
<div class="gmail_extra"><br>
</div>
<div class="gmail_extra">What I've been doing is just closing
closed accounts and paid off loans which leaves the data in
KMyMoney and draws a line through the various closed accounts
in the Accounts --> List view (both Liability and Asset).</div>
<div class="gmail_extra"><br>
</div>
<div class="gmail_extra">So my question is, how does everyone
handle their closed accounts? I don't mind leaving the
data/accounts in KMyMoney, my data file is only around 700KB
and it loads very fast, but I would like to clean up the views
and get rid of some of these old accounts. I know I have to
remove all the transactions before I can truly delete an
account, but I'm thinking I'd like to archive the old data to
keep it around ... for posterity if nothing else? :-)</div>
<div class="gmail_extra"><br>
</div>
<div class="gmail_extra">I would appreciate any suggestions or
thoughts on what other folks are doing with old closed
accounts. Sorry for the long explanation and thanks for
reading!</div>

KMyMoney user!)</div>

Terry, this is an ongoing issue. If I recall correctly there is - up
to now - no way of having a "new start" after one, or two, or x
years and start a new accounting year/period (or something) without
loosing past records.<br>
Though, in my opinion as well, this is not satisfactory to some of
us.<br>
<br>
Nevertheless, and even without that feature in question, KMM is by
far the best I've ever come across!<br>
Many thanks and compliments to all developers and helpers!<span><font color="#888888"><br>
