Point one fixed, thanks. I'm confused what exactly is going on. Can you please elaborate? Here's my best 2 guesses: And before anything, here are some assumptions of the starting situation. That will help us to see what happens later.
Scenario No. 1First, 200 EUR was spent for the common trip from son's bank account, and 100 EUR was spent for the common trip from parent's bank account. Because this is the common ledger, instead of son's personal ledger or parent's personal ledger, common expenses is the default and so
Second, 100 EUR was moved from parents bank account to son's bank account. Why not, but I have no clue what's the reason.
Scenario No. 2First, 200 EUR was spent for son's personal hobbies from son's bank account, and 100 EUR was spent for the parent's personal hobbies from parent's bank account.

after these two operations:
like this everything works well. |
Oops, you're right - edited Equity balances to be negative. Hey, but your " Thanks, now I finally understand your case! Hmm, that's interesting to not share anything but use the same beancount file. I see the benefit of transparency and reporting together. Yes, you need allocate plugin, not share plugin. Here's my suggestion how to do it best: First, make sure that Second, simplify clearing as described below.
P.S. To easily mass-tag all transactions, you can use

in fact, i don't like so much pushtag and pop tag. it is because only some expenses are shared and i import them automatically. #allocate-Son-33.34p is the share of debt of son to the parents |
you doc is clear except in one point: what happen when one person pay to the other in order to clear the difference.
following this example:
i have two remarks:
plugin "beancount_allocate.allocate" "{}"
and notplugin "allocate" "{}"
