Re: [GNC] Book keeping/accounting of club project funds
Report Options > Display (at least for P/Income Statement and the Balance Sheet) Parent account balances > Account Balance | Subtotal | Do not show Parent account subtotals > Show subtotals | Do not show | Textbook style (experimental) The first option will show the Account Balance if the parent is *not* a placeholder and has transactions. The first option “Subtotal” will show the roll-up of the kids, regardless of if there are transactions in the parent. (from my understanding) The second option “Show subtotals” will show a line AFTER the list of kids with “ Total” and an amount, which I *think* includes the parent and children I’ve never seen any difference with the Text Book Style. Generally, all my parents are placeholders, but I have a few that aren’t. So I set this to Account Balance, and *also* set to suppress zero balance figures and accounts. (so only those parents with transactions get a figure, otherwise, it is blank) And then I set the second option to Show Subtotals. So I get something like this: Auto Auto Insurance $717.73 Fuel E10 $73.55 Gas $522.01 Total Fuel --- $595.56 Parking $3.15 Repair and Maintenance Fluids $61.96 Labor $48.00 Parts $397.63 Warranty $40.00 Total Parts--- $437.63 Supplies $10.01 Total Repair and Maintenance --- $557.60 Total Auto --- $1,874.04 However for my Balance Sheet, none of the detail I choose to show has any parents with transactions, so I set the first option to “Do Not Show” and the second to “Show Subtotals” (I still suppress zero balance figures and accounts for cleanliness) Regards, Adrien > On May 2, 2019, at 9:19 PM, Stephen M.

Re: [GNC] Book keeping/accounting of club project funds
Rod, I think AP/AR are already there if you have the Business Features available. (this was a subject of dispute not long ago on the list. I seem to recall a time when one had to specifically enable them as an option, but it’s been so long since I started a new book...) If you do have to create them manually, be sure to assign them the ’special’ account type that matches their name. (‘Accounts Receivable’ as ’type: accounts receivable’, same for payables) Also remember that while you can have other receivable and payable accounts, *do not* set them to those special types. (you can only have one of each) Make them generic asset/liability accounts. (but they can be children of the special accounts) Finally, try to avoid manual entries into those special accounts, use only the business features to accomplish changes. (but you can make manual entries in your generic receivable/payables accounts all you want) The Business Features, along with their special reports, are not cognizant of entries in the generic accounts, and are not cognizant of manual entries.

Re: [GNC] Account Types
What you are looking for is something more along the lines of operational and/or cost-center accounting. You *can* achieve that with an unconventional account tree, but you’ll encounter some oddities, like this one. You can export your P to a spreadsheet to manipulate it like you want with COGS broken out separately and even add a Operating Revenue or similar line after. Otherwise, investigate using the SQlite backend with Piecash to generate a custom P (you could use Scheme within GnuCash to do this, but that is a steeper learning curve) Regards, Adrien > On May 2, 2019, at 8:33 PM, Jimmy R via gnucash-user > wrote: > > I've created a top level accounts called COGS which is fine, but when I run a > report it is shown within the Expenses.

Re: [GNC] column widths - balance
The real problem comes if you use the program on two different monitors with different resolutions and/or different default text sizes. In one case you will want extra space to the left so that it is still ok on the other monitor. Double clicking doesn't leave extra space on the left.

Note that Section 2.3.3 of the Guide includes the following: Note In the register windows, you can resize the various columns that GnuCash displays, but keep in mind that the Description and Balance columns behave differently from other columns. The Description column is designed to expand automatically to fill all unused horizontal screen space.

I inherited a Quick Books system that I imported into GNUCash. I've made some modifications to that account structure. I am using three Asset accounts. Checking, Savings, and Petty cash.

We are now needing to enhance those systems so we've asked for donations specifically for this purpose - a Repeater fund. So when the funds come in how do I book them? That the right term? Previously I just deposited the funds to checking. And we used them as needed though there wasn't enough in the fund so the rest came out of the checking asset. I'd appreciate any suggestions on how to handle this? TIA, Rod In addition to the other suggestions, I'd look to having sub-accounts under checking and set flags such that checking includes the sub-accounts in a roll-up accounting. With sub-accounts you could break out the funds held in the checking account for the purposes for which the funds have been reserved.

Re: [GNC] Book keeping/accounting of club project funds
Thanks Rich. Yeah still in Idaho so and because our assets are so small we have only an Annual Report. At least that's what the Secretary of State says. :-) Federal tax reporting is just a simple. Somewhere/when the decision must have been made to not carry hardware on the books. Feels odd to me but I don't buck it. More work for a volunteer position. I'm still looking for a CPA that will help us pro bono. Right now the great people on this list are my resource. :-) Again thanks for the thoughts.

Any way to do this? I would start by editing the existing Schwab account and change the name to Schwab-Checking (will make other changes a few steps down). Next create a new Schwab account marking it as a placeholder. Here I would edit the Schwab-Checking account to make it a child of the newly created Schwab account. Probably change the name to its final form at the same time. Now create the new Brokerage folder as a child to the new Schwab account. Add sub-folders as desired under the Brokerage folder. It's a multi-step process but all in the accounts page and just edit/create as needed. The hangup is you need to get the existing Schwab account out of the way (new temp name) in order to create it's new parent that has it's name. --Steve -- Stephen M Butler, PMP, PSM stephen.m.butle...@gmail.com kg...@arrl.net 253-350-0166 --- GnuPG Fingerprint: 8A25 9726 D439 758D D846 E5D4 282A 5477 0385 81D8 ___ gnucash-user mailing list gnucash-user@gnucash.org To update your subscription preferences or to unsubscribe: https://lists.gnucash.org/mailman/listinfo/gnucash-user If you are using Nabble or Gmane, please see https://wiki.gnucash.org/wiki/Mailing_Lists for more information. - Please remember to CC this list on all your replies.

[GNC] How to reorder account tree AND transactions?
All, I stared at the FAQ "How can I reorder accounts in the account tree?" and searched the archives, but remain stumped. A while back I opened a Schwab checking account, and I've got a couple of years worth of transactions in it. Now I want to reorder the account structure from: Schwab. $xxx.xx (a simple account with some money in it and s transaction history) to Schwab (a folder) Checking... (same as above, with all of the transactions carried down) Brokerage (new folder) (new sub-accounts under here) I tried editing account names by sticking in "::", eg trying to change "Schwab" to Schwab::Checking" but that didn't fly.

Re: [GNC] GC won't load on Ubuntu 19.04
Right. The problem is that you build GnuCash on Ubuntu 18.04 that provides libboost-regex.so.1.65.0 then upgraded to Ubuntu 19.04 that provides libboost-regex.so.1.67.0 instead. When the linker tries to assemble gnucash to run it it can't find libboost-regex.so.1.65.0 because it's no longer there. It raises the error you reported: gnucash: error while loading shared libraries: libboost_regex.so.1.65.1: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory * You can try to find libboost-1.65 and install it alongside libboost-1.67 (you'll also need to get whatever version of ICU was provided on Ubuntu 18.04). Don't use apt, it doesn't understand having two versions of the same package installed and you'll break a lot of other stuff if you remove the current boost and ICU libraries. * You can rebuild GnuCash so that it's linked to the newer libraries. * You can trash your self-build GnuCash and get the newer one from apt. The last option is the safest because that way the next time you upgrade apt will upgrade GnuCash along with everything else.

Re: [GNC] 8.1 Find (^F) set default search preferences?
The part of the ^F search that I get most frustrated with is that it only searches the split lines belonging to the register that you start in, so I usually have to start by going to the CoA window or open a Ledger window before starting my search. An option to search all transaction accounts without leaving the current account register would be very nice.

I removed all files created after the last known good .gnucash backup file - MDH.gnucash.20190502173103.gnucash - to a safe place. I then started Gnucash 3.4 in the normal way, and opened this backup file when prompted for a filename. I made a couple of entries, saved as MDH.gnucash and Quit Gnucash. This time I was able to open the resulting file with Gnucash 3.5, make an entry, save and exit in the normal way. I’ll keep a careful eye on developments over the next few days.

Probably not. Since you gave a full path (not relative) to the source, your build location could be nearly anywhere. Specifically, it would be where you were at when the cmake was issued. Usually it is in a "build-xxx" folder just under Applications (next door to gnucash-3.1). However, some use a '.build' folder inside the source code (dpkg_buildpackage does that).

Encouraged by your confidence in 3.5, I downloaded and installed it this afternoon, from here: https://sourceforge.net/projects/gnucash/ Having mounted the DMG file (Gnucash-Intel-3.5-1.dmg) I dragged and dropped the Gnucash.app across to the Applications folder, and ran it from there on my current (version 3.4) file. On the first run Gnucash shut down without any apparent reason (this seems to be a common finding), but I ran it again and entered a few transactions without trouble. I saved and closed the file as normal. When next I opened the same file the account registers were opened as I had left them, but the program wouldn’t respond at all, and the menu bar had none of the usual menu items, just the Apple symbol and “Gnucash”. I was unable to shut Gnucash down using the usual methods, so had to Force Quit, and when I tried again I got the file lock warning - I said Open Anyway, but the result was the same.

Re: [GNC] GC won't load on Ubuntu 19.04
I built the debian package for GnC 3.5 while on Ubuntu 18.04. I since upgraded to 19.04 and found that GnC worked for me. Since then I've been unable to build the debian package for GnC 3.5 on 19,04. I am still working through the issues. Others have indicated that the debian packages built under 18.04 will not install on 19.04 (though they will install under 18.10 and earlier). I have not tried to compile GnC 3.5 on my box outside of building the debian package. That may be my next step to ensure I can at least compile and install locally. Sorry I have so many other projects also demanding my time. So far, current technology indicates it will take 20-25 years to grow a viable clone (or two). --Steve On 5/2/19 1:17 PM, Dennis Powless wrote: > So, just to be clear I wasn't trying to build GC, just run it and after an > upgraded ubuntu.

Re: [GNC] column widths - balance
Every column except the description can be adjusted by grabbing and dragging the right edge with the mouse. The balance column is a little harder to do that way, but the double click method usually makes an acceptable width.

Re: [GNC] GC won't load on Ubuntu 19.04
So, just to be clear I wasn't trying to build GC, just run it and after an upgraded ubuntu. From what I can tell, I'll need to uninstall GC and then reinstall it. I'll try to fully uninstall GC and then install GC. I'd like to have v 3.5, but I've been having issues with the removal of GC after a build.

Re: [GNC] GC won't load on Ubuntu 19.04
Boost has the annoying misfeature of versioning their library names so that they can't be upgraded without rebuilding everything dependent on them. Ubuntu 18.10 and 19.04 provide boost-1.67.0 and you built GnuCash with boost-1.65.0. ICU has the same misfeature but GnuCash doesn't directly link it so that won't generally affect folks building on Linux.

So it seems you have a local build that is interfering with the gnucash package installed by your package manager. I would suggest to remove your local installation.

Re: [GNC] GC won't load on Ubuntu 19.04
Dennis, I don't know how extensive the upgrade to 19.04 was but on Linux Mint upgrades I usually rebuild GnuCash because the Linux kernel has usually been changed and in some cases the libraries themselves may need to be reloaded as there will be versions in the repository built for that new OS version. If you are buidling Gnucash you will have to have the development headers for the dependency libraries installed but to run it you also have to install the libraries themselves. The instructions on the BUild on Linux page usually load both. If you are going to build GnuCash you might as well go straight to 3.5 and start there. If cmake didn't throw an error then it is likely you have all the header files for the libraries installed (these don't necessarily change when the OS is upgraded) so you may need to install any of the libraries you get runtime errors for. After upgrading to 19.04 it is likely you would need to reinstall all the dependency libraries. Steven Butler's posts re building the .deb version for Ubuntu 19.04 on the DEV forum may also be worth looking at for possible problems.

Re: [GNC] Problems with getting European share prices
Hi John Thanks for the pointer. I'm told that building 3.5 from source is simple but it requires some screwing up of my courage. In the meantime I have a (very) rough and ready work round (totally outside of GnuCash) that'll satisfy my immediate needs.

About two weeks ago I upgraded my system to Ubuntu 18.10 and a few days later to 19.04 (ironically, I was trying to get around some problems) and installed GnuCash from the standard repository; so I am running GnuCash 3.4 with Finance::Quote 1.47 on Ubuntu 19.04. As part of my usual work process, on 30^th April I updated my share prices as in the past I was using Alphavantage to get UK share prices and Yahoo-JSON to retrieve European prices. Then, as usual, went to check that everything was OK. Although there were no error messages and all the names of my European shares were shown in the Price Database window there were no prices against any of them ??? and I mean NO prices. I know that there were some there at the end of March but everything had gone. Even the little triangular thingies were missing. As there are only half a dozen shares in this group I thought to add the prices ???by hand??? but I couldn???t do it, although I could fill I the fields and clicking Apply gave no messages nothing appeared in the database. A further oddity is that in the table of accounts there is a Present value against each of the European shares ??? to get that GnuCash must be picking up some price from somewhere. I???ve done some checking around and I can???t find a reasonable explanation of how the price is determined. I take an archive copy of the data file at the end of each month. I have opened several of them (using the standard GnuCash 3.4) and get the same behaviour with each of them. As I said, it must be me but - any ideas of what I???m doing wrong. Or failing that, would I be able to open the 3.5 data file with GnuCash 2.6.21? Eric PS: For completeness: I had not changed the Symbol for any share since the successful update at the end of March. The Yahoo site shows Deutsche Post as DPW.DE (not the DPW.F I had been using). Changing the symbol to DPW.DE gave no different result (again, not even no error message) Sounds like https://bugs.gnucash.org/show_bug.cgi?id=797046, fixed in GnuCash 3.5.

Re: [GNC] GC won't load on Ubuntu 19.04
Not sure whether our posts crossed there, I meant why are you trying to build gnucash 3.1 when the Ubuntu repo has 3.4? If you want to build from source then having upgraded Ubuntu I suspect you will have to do a full rebuild.
