This is a user question and should be asked in gnucash-users. Gnucash-devel is for the developers and testers working on the next version of Gnucash. No, income and expenses aren't reflected in equity until you do a "close books" which creates aggregate zeroing transactions in each income and expense account balanced in equity. This is further explained in the FAQ http://wiki.gnucash.org/wiki/FAQ#Q:_What_are_debits_and_credits.3F The close-books procedure is explained in FAQ http://wiki.gnucash.org/wiki/FAQ#Q:_Is_there_book-closing_support.2C_yet.3F Regards, John Ralls _______________________________________________ gnucash-devel mailing list [email protected] https://lists.gnucash.org/mailman/listinfo/gnucash-devel
