Did you try spotlite? It should be under “Applications” unless you installed it 
in an unusual place.

Re: Integrating Profit and Loss Report into a set of books and the trial balance

[Adrien Monteleone]

You don’t enter Net Income directly.

You enter all of the revenue transactions and all of the expense transactions.

Gnucash does the math when you run the P (Income Statement) Report.

Which brings up a use case for never running ‘close book.’

If you never close, it doesn’t matter what date the Balance Sheet is run for, 
it will always present the proper Retained Earnings calculation as of that date.

Closing the books will do that.

But you may not want to close the books monthly. Instead you may want to run an 
income statement for each month, and not close the books till the end of the 
year. 

The tutorial concepts guide has more about this. It caused me to change my 
accounting period from a month to a year, and specify start and end dates for 
each month's income statement.

When you run a balance sheet as of a particular date, the total of income minus 
expenses is automatically placed on the balance sheet, in a category called 
retained earnings, so you don't have to do anything to compute it. 

However, the Retained Earnings in the balance sheet does not pay attention to 
the accounting period. Say your accounting period is monthly and you close the 
books at the end of the year (as I do). When you run a balance sheet as of 31 
January, the Retained Earnings figure shown is of course the net income for 
January. But when you run a balance sheet as of 28 February, Retained earnings 
is the total of the two months January and February, in a single number. In 
other words, Retained Earnings is always the total of income minus expenses 
since the last time you closed the books.  

By contrast, the income statement does respect the dates you set on Edit » 
Report Options.  (I think that's the right menu option; I don't have the 
software on this computer.)

Integrating Profit and Loss Report into a set of books and the trial balance

[jcnw]

I am setting up a set of books for a small church and need to run a month
profit and loss report.
How do I enter the Net Income for the Period into the books so it shows up
in the balance sheet?
I have set up the books with Income, Expense, Asset and Liability accounts.
Do I need to set up a P account.
Thanks for help and consideration
John

Re: version 2.7 Gnucash.exe – Entry Point Not Found

[Geert Janssens]

Robert Fewell discovered a missing file in the 2.7.5 installer, so yes it 
can't run on Windows.

We have fixed this issue since the 2.7.5 release, but I'm still having issues 
composing a new Windows installer package. Otherwise I would have asked you to 
try the current nightly build.

And it is as David already points our: 2.7.x are beta releases, only intended 
to test for issues still to fix for 3.0. You're most welcome to help out there 
of course, but don't use it for actual accounting just yet (we're getting 
close).

Let's rather say "a linux program ported to Windows using a toolkit that's 
been obsolete and unmaintained for a number of years".

Anyway, I don't expect any of the current developers to spend effort on trying 
to get this resorted in the 2.6 series. This is mainly due to time restratines 
and the 3.0 release being around the corner.

Now if the 3.0 release has the same issue, that would be a more likely get our 
attention. So it would be useful if one of you that's having this issue can 
try what happens when doing the same with the most recent gnucash 2.7.5 
release. Keep in mind this is beta software, so use it only after you have 
made a backup of your books!
