[GNC] Adjusting column width on Gnucash

2023-11-16 Thread olaide olowu
Good day,

Hope this mail finds you well?

I appreciate Gnucash software, it has assisted me in my day to day
accounting duties.

Please I currently have an issue with the column width adjustment on
Gnucash. I tried to adjust the credit column of the journal but it
inadvertently closed up and I was unable to readjust it back to its visible
state. The credit column is not visible to view the figures I have posted.

Please assist with the possible best solution on how this can be rectified.

Anticipating your swift response.

Thank you.

Re: [GNC] linking pre-existing assets with liabilities

2023-11-16 Thread Adrien Monteleone

Glad you found your answer, and thanks for reporting back that you did!

That's an odd bug with regards to the Description/Memo fields.

I recall an existing bug about the Notes/Memo fields but didn't realize 
this affected the Description also.


If you find that existing bug, maybe make a comment about this new 
facet, and/or file an additional bug. From what I recall, the Notes 
field and the first 'assigned' Memo field always end up duplicated for 
some reason and the Notes are not otherwise editable even after the fact.


Such data should not change in these cases.

Regards,
Adrien

here it is:

One downside is that it changes the description of the field to the company name
and puts the old description into the memo field. If you want to keep the 
description
the bank gave remember to copy the memo field and then paste into the desc.

Thanks very much for posting your solution. That will be helpful for
future people who have a similar question. And even for folks like me
who may not need it right now, still it's interesting!

[GNC] linking pre-existing assets with liabilities

2023-11-16 Thread AP
Hi,

My searching is failing me so I thought I'd ask.

I am importing my bank statements into my bank Assets account in gnucash. I
would like to link those withdrawals with bills I have created in my A/Payable
Liabilities account.

The hassle is when I hit pay it creates a manual entry for me. I don't want
that. I would like to link that to the entry generated from my bank import
that corresponds to the payment that was made.

Is there a way to do this so that I can remove the "unpaid" tag from the bill
and keep the accounts appropriately balanced?

Thanks,
Andrew

Re: [GNC] Reconciliation with a strange opening balance

2023-11-16 Thread Mahon Finbar via gnucash-user

Another good idea.

I went back to the start and sorted by Description, but nothing out of 
the ordinary.  As we might expect the majority of entries are 
withdrawals, so the deposits are easier to see. Also, sorted by 
description sorts out if you put down the credit card payments or the 
pub expenditures in the wrong place!!


Ho hum. Thanks for the suggestion.

Aha, as usual you are correct Maff. I'll just have to soldier on. I
already found two deposits entered as withdrawals.

At this stage, consider how you could use the search feature to find
these sort of errors.
If the deposits have a unique description, search for that description
in the account and then check that all the entries are in the
appropriate column.
Sadly the autocomplete features autocomplete errors equally as well as
good work, so think about how you can get the accounts sorted out other
than through the reconcile feature.
