Added note to docs about "primary" commodities
Whenever a commodity is exchanged for another in a posting, one of the two is considered "primary", and the other secondary. Primariness of a commodity is remembered, since the --market option only renders balances into secondary commodities, never primaries. To render primaries, use the --exchange=COMMODITY option. In all of the following examples, the P commodity is considered primary and the S is secondary (the P at the beginning of the line indicates a price-setting directive): 2009/01/01 Sample 1a Assets:Brokerage:Stocks 100 S Assets:Brokerage:Cash -100 P P 2009/01/15 00:00:00 S 2 P 2009/02/01 Sample 2a Assets:Brokerage:Stocks 100 S @ 1 P Assets:Brokerage:Cash P 2009/02/01 00:00:00 S 4 P 2009/03/01 Sample 3a Assets:Brokerage:Stocks 100 S @@ 100 P Assets:Brokerage:Cash P 2009/03/01 00:00:00 S 8 P 2009/04/01 Sample 4a Assets:Brokerage:Cash 100 P Assets:Brokerage:Stocks -100 S {1 P} P 2009/04/01 00:00:00 S 16 P
