The wonderful thing about gnucash is that it is open source. The sad thing
is that it is run 100% by volunteers. If there is something that bothers
you, you should volunteer to fix it! Patches are always welcome.
Thanks!

Hello.
I'm very grateful to GnuCash developers. Nevertheless, it seems to me that
they are not very interested in international standards, possibly because
many of them are Americans, and Americans are not fond of international
standards. I use GnuCash 4.9 on Fedora.
1) Former bug 622778 was opened 12 years ago and is very similar to current
bug 797093 ("Miscalculation in cashflow reports"), reported in 2019 and
still unfixed.
2) Bug 796811 ("Allowing ISO number formats (both decimal separators,
spaces) and currency symbol as input"), reported in 2018, has not been fixed.
3) When using multiple currencies, after having filled the price database
with the exchange rate of all days with transactions in the foreign
currency, I found no way to get a correct income statement based on the
exchange rate of each transaction day, which is an IFRS requirement. IFRS
for SMEs n°30.7: "An entity shall record a foreign currency transaction, on
initial recognition in the functional currency, by applying to the foreign
currency amount the spot exchange rate between the functional currency and
the foreign currency at the date of the transaction." I tried the 5 options
of "Price source": "Average cost of purchases weighted by volume",
"Weighted average of all transactions in the past", "Last up through report
date" (which is incomprehensible to me, whose mother tongue is not
English), "Closest to report date" and "Most recent".
These 3 defects have poisoned my life for long. I guess there are other non
standard behaviours which don't bother me. Does anyone know of another
openSource project more focused on international standards?
Thank you very much in advance.
