[moneydance] post date on transfers

[Gordon Alley]

Based upon what you've said, I'd use the transfer account (asset) idea you
mentioned, if you really need to track the two dates exactly.  Name it
something like "funds en route". All your reports should function properly.
You might be able to save a bit of time by creating memorized transactions
for both sides, since I presume these transfers are always occurring between
the same sets of accounts.
