Copy and paste splits

It would be great to be able to copy and paste multiple splits, more or less like a set of Excel spreadsheet cells. Inserting them above a specific split or even deleting several splits by selecting them and hitting delete.

   Hi Nigel,
   Thank you for contacting Moneydance support.

   Although the functions to copy/paste/insert above are not currently available within Moneydance, you should be able to delete multiple splits from the split window. To achieve this you should select any split then use key CRTL + A or CMD + A on Mac. This should highlight all splits in the split window. Click the "Delete Split" button. The first split should stay while the rest should be deleted.

   I hope this information is helpful. Please let us know if you have further questions or need more assistance.

   Thanks Maddy. Does this mean that copy/paste/insert of split lines are scheduled for inclusion at some point? This is a very frustrating shortcoming for me as I have multiple items that I’d like to breakdown in a single transaction. It would GREATLY speed up my data entry if you had this capability. If it is on the drawing board, when do you think it might be released?

   If you haven't already you may want to refer to this article of the Knowledge Base about Splitting Transactions in multiple categories.

   Additionally, using these keyboard shortcuts might be useful as well.

   Lastly, although I'd be happy to create a suggestion ticket for this topic, unfortunately I am unable to provide an ETA for implementing a copy/paste/insert split feature at this time.

   I think this capability would be tremendously useful to a lot of users.

   Are you ever going to implement this? It would be incredibly helpful!

   Does right click and duplicate transaction help? Then edit the new txn’s details?
