I wouldn't after 4 years of animal science (humans plus) plus a lot of home butchery. Look up the Dunning-Kruger Effect, two blokes got a nobel prize for saying you're full of shit. Your GP knows bugger all about lymph nodes anyway. If you know your stuff you should be able to explain it in simple terms but communication skills are often more of a challenge for people with a maths focus. Use plain English minimising technical terms to where they are needed but assume nobody knows what they mean. Credit/debit are a special case because the community *know* what they mean, and it's exactly opposite to the accounting definition, so I agree deposit/withdrawal are better terms. I checked the docs and only found Fiscal Year referenced twice, both in the Guide [better in wiki faq]. Interestingly the accounting period definition in the glossary meant nothing to me but the depreciation section has "accounting period (IE: fiscal year)" so I Googled fiscal year, found financial year then understood it. _______________________________________________ gnucash-devel mailing list [email protected] https://lists.gnucash.org/mailman/listinfo/gnucash-devel
