I'm not sure which version it worked with, it was a long time ago (I've been
using KMyMoney for 10+ years now).

I use this entry method when buying zero-coupon bonds, where you buy the bond
below face value and when it expires you get the actual nominal value. Since
this is considered interest income and not capital gains, I use this method to
account for it in the interest income category (as I tend to keep them till
maturity), since KMyMoney lacks facilities to register this type of investment
otherwise.

I'm aware of reports, but they are really suboptimal and hard to create custom
ones. Also should I close an investment (i.e. a bond) because they cannot be
bought any more, the reports won't show them at all, while in the investments
category the ledgers remain and it's easy to look at. This also helps
categorize different incomes better.
