Hi Shashi/GNUCash users, While I will let Stan answer the bulk of your accounting/user interface question/issue, I do want to note that Ubuntu 20.04 is a very old version of Ubuntu.
https://distrowatch.com/table.php?distribution=ubuntu - the current version of Ubuntu is 25.04/Plucky. If the hardware that you are using allows you to upgrade to the current version (or even a currently supported version of Ubuntu, as 20.04 is now End of Life/unsupported), you may also want to check which version of GNUCash you are using. The current version of GNUCash is 5.11 - https://www.gnucash.org/download.phtml --- Thanks, Brad - https://www.facebook.com/brad.morrison.12327/ & https://nextdoor.com/profile/01mP46jj8KCzj3sP4 & https://norcal.social/@BradMorrison On 2025-05-07 21:54, Stan Brown (using GC 4.14) wrote: > In the General Journal and in individual registers, transactions are > ordered within date by the contents of the Num field.
