I help a friend with their monthly accounting. She has GNUCash installed on a PC. I have GNUCash installed on a Mac mini M1 computer. She does the input. I do the month end transactions and check her input. So we send GNUCash data files backwards and forwards. The way I identify the file I have sent her is to give her the Summary Box values. She must agree this before starting her new month’s input.
This worked well until, for no apparent reason, these figures don’t match any more. My Mac mini M1 shows: Net Assets £9,115.89 Profits £3,075.18 Using the same file that I emailed her, her PC Shows: Net Assets £9,115.89 Profits £0.00 So I realised that there must be a Preference not set by her. I downloaded and installed GNUCash on my wife’s PC to see how I could correct the error. I changed the Setting Accounting period dates to the correct ones. So, on my wife’s PC I have: Net Assets £9,115.89 Profits £8,803.24 It’s still not right and the Profit figure is now in red. I now have 3 different Profit Figures, but I cannot find any place on the Windows version to check why there are these differences, because I don’t know where this Profit figure comes from. The correct figures are the ones on my Mac mini M1 above. I must be missing something. Any help would be greatly appreciated.
