I'm relatively new to Gnucash (now running 2.6.21 in Win 8.1). I
have been unable to find answers online to two issues I have when
creating Income & Expense reports in Gnucash.
Issue 1: Year-To-Date Column
I have found no way to add a YTD column to a monthly I & E report.
Is it even possible?
I have been able to create a multi-column custom report, with one
half being a complete current month report and the other half
being a complete YTD report, but that is a really poor substitute.
For one thing, for any given account there may be no entries in
the current month, while YTD that account may have a balance. So
unless I want really long reports listing every account and and
lots of zeros, there is little or no parallelism between the two
side-by-side reports.
Issue 2: Net Losses as Negative
Where I grew up, net losses always appeared as negative numbers
following the description "Net Profit/(Loss)." Gnucash insists
on reflecting them as positive numbers beside a "Net Loss" title.
That issue actually passes through to the balance sheet as well,
it being more descriptive to see a positive Equity figure reduced
by a negative "Retained Earnings/(Losses)" figure.
Is there a way to effect this change?
If the answers are "not possible" to those issues, I would strongly
like to see them added to a future features agenda.
Thank you for any help.
