Re: [GNC] Is it safe to use Greek, Chinese etc characters

[john]

Yes, it's completely safe on Linux and macOS and mostly safe on MSWindows. Just 
make sure that the characters are encoded in UTF-8. Web pages generally are, 
but other Windows applications use UTF-16 and pasting into GnuCash will not 
produce the desiredresult. Windows CMD and Powershell are pretty firmly stuck 
in the 1990s and unless you perform some special contortions encode non-ASCII 
characters using DOS code-pages. Don't try to paste from them into GnuCash.

GnuCash fully supports Unicode via UTF-8 and we have lots of users around the 
world who use a variety of writing systems.

John Ralls

 Hello all,

 I've been a user for all of 2 weeks, so I apologize to everyone if this
 question/subject has been beaten to death in the past. My research online
 has not resulted in a fix, though, so I'd like to ask: has anyone running
 gnucash 4.12 or 4.13 on Windows 10 managed to change font families using
 CSS ? The documentation I've found on the subject suggests Windows users
 can change typefaces using CSS by editing the file
 GNC_CONFIG_HOME/gtk-3.0.css by adding a section like this :

 /* Application wide font setting */
 gnc-id-main-window {
 font-family: Microsoft Calibri;
 font-size: 24pt;
 }

 Following these directions I edited the file gtk-3.0.css in the folder
 C:\Users\\AppData\Roaming\GnuCash with the setting shown above;
 but, upon restarting gnucash I see absolutely no font change whatsoever.
 For grins, I copied this file to the AppData\Local\GnuCash directory as
 well, and again restarted gnucash. Sadly, same non-result.

 Any hints greatly appreciated,

 Terry

Just un-post, edit and re-post. Still work, but no need to start over.

You can right-click a payment and choose Edit Payment if needed as well.



I believe that Accounts Payable will need sub accounts for GBP, USD and
EUR. Not having three Accounts Payable in each currency should make posting
bills easier, as I will not have to select Bank, PayPal or eBay. If there’s
only one choice with the matching currency I assume that GnuCash with know
where to post.


You do need separate AP for each currency, true. (or at least I've heard 
it helps, it may indeed be required)


As for smart guessing, that I'm not so sure of, but you never know till 
you try. In a worst case, you can still choose the one you want. Posting 
isn't automatic.




I suppose if you managed to get back to zero, no harm no foul, but I'd
anticipate you're going to have a big mess in the future with that setup.



Okay, I will start again.



AP is usually one bucket - for all payables. GnuCash tracks each vendor
for you, and neither your Bank, nor PayPal are vendors either. They are
sources of funds, thus Assets.



I have not set them up as vendors.


I didn't think so, which is why I didn't understand the need for AP 
accounts for them.


The *usual & generic* transaction flow should go something like this:

New Bill from Vendor
-
Dr. Expenses
  Cr. AP

Paying the Bill
-
Dr. AP
  Cr. Assets

('Assets' being your payment method/source of funds - Cash, Bank, 
PayPal, Credit Card, Gift Card, etc.)


Return/Cancellation/Refund from Vendor (full or partial) - as a Credit Note
-
Dr. AP
  Cr. Expenses

Receipt of funds from Vendor
-
Dr. Assets
  Cr. AP

If you end up with a Credit Note situation before (fully) paying the 
original Bill, you can simply post the Credit Note, then Process Payment 
selecting both the Bill & Credit Note to offset each other. (partially 
or fully, as the case may be)

Adrien

I think I have achieved this with two reversing transactions, done in the

That makes the balance on Liabilities:Accounts Payable:PayPal -*£1 *

2)
Debit: Liabilities:Accounts Payable:PayPal
Credit: Assets:Current Assets:Checking Account

That seems to get back to where I started, with £100, and zero everywhere

I'm trying to work out how to refund a payment, made to a vendor (Royal

The attached file is very similar to the standard business accounts, with
the bare minimum of changes needed to demonstrate my problem.  The only
real changes I have made are

1) Added a PayPal account - Assets:Current Assets: PayPal
2) Made Liabilities:Accounts Payable a placeholder account.
3) Added Liabilities: Accounts Payable:Bank
4) Added Liabilities: Accounts Payable:PayPal
5) Added Royal Mail as a vendor.
6) Set the opening balance on the checking account to £100. The PayPal
balance is £0.


*Next I generated a Bill for Royal Mail for £1 for postage, and posted
that to *

*Liabilities: Accounts Payable:PayPal *

*using the expense account Expense:Postage and Delivery. *


*Next I paid PayPal, using the bank account. *


*At this point the expenses risen to £1 due to the postage, and the
balance of the bank account has reduced from £100 to £99. *

The
*£1 paid was actually for Royal Mail to collect the package, but I
realised it would not be ready in time, so cancelled the collection. *

I assume there are going to be 2 stages to this.
1) Royal Mail gives a *£1 *refund to PayPal.
2) I transfer the PayPal balance of *£1 *back to my bank account.

If this is the way to go, I know how to do the second part of this, but
I'm totally lost about how to do the first part.

No, I was trying to explain that an "inventory system" deals with things 
way outside the scope of something like gnucash. Gnucash is handling 
what is known as the "general ledger" portion of an overall business 
system.


In my use of gnucash (for non-profit organizations) it proved adequate 
for dealing with "inventory" because this was VERY limited. None of the 
organizations was doing much more that required inventory than selling 
and/or giving to volunteers "swag" like organizational tee shirts, mugs, 
etc. Just needed to track well enough to be able to produce "sales", 
:"cost of goods sold", and "recognition expense" (for the 990-EZ) and 
never more than a few batches (FIFO to get cost).and never more than one 
new batch per year of that.


But would be totally inadequate for a business that was selling goods, 
hundreds of different things, each with batches.

You're right about the '#' being needed (at least on my system). Once I got the correct 
font spec working with the "*" I tried with and without the '#', and only with 
the '#' did the font change occur in gnucash.

Hello all, 

I've been a user for all of 2 weeks, so I apologize to everyone if this 
question/subject has been beaten to death in the past. My research online has

/* Application wide font setting */ 
gnc-id-main-window { 
font-family: Microsoft Calibri; 
font-size: 24pt; 
} 

Following these directions I edited the file gtk-3.0.css in the folder 
C:\Users\\AppData\Roaming\GnuCash with the setting shown above; but, 
upon restarting gnucash I see absolutely no font change whatsoever. For grins, 
I copied this file to the AppData\Local\GnuCash directory as well, and again 
restarted gnucash. Sadly, same non-result.

Re: [GNC] Changing typeface using CSS (Windows 10)

[TERRENCE BRANSCOMBE]

Thanks, Adrian. 

You're right about the '#' being needed (at least on my system). Once I got the 
correct font spec working with the "*" I tried with and without the '#', and 
only with the '#' did the font change occur in gnucash. 

Cheers, 
Terry

Subject: Re: [GNC] Changing typeface using CSS (Windows 10) 

Terrence, 

You nearly had it right the first time. 

You need the "#" in front of the selector: 

"#gnc-id-main-window" 

The initial post you made left off the '#' sign at the beginning. If it 
is not there in your CSS file, that would be why it didn't work. That 
symbol indicates a CSS 'id' and without it, a 'named node'. If the node 
is not named as such, but does have that id, then your rule without the 
symbol will never work. 

Also, I'm surprised the wiki doesn't show this, but I'm fairly certain 
you have to quote font family names that have spaces in them. It is also 
good practice to provide a generic fallback, such as 'serif' or 
'sans-serif' etc. This way, if for some reason you didn't name the font 
just right, you should still see some sort of change. (assuming the 
generic is different than the default.) There is a way to find the 
proper name with a font viewer where you can see the font meta data. In 
this case, it might just be 'Calibri', though I'm not certain. 

Finally, play with other units such as 'px' or 'em'. Some work with GTK 
in some contexts and others do not. I haven't found the rhyme or reason 
yet. You might also find success with named sizes like 'medium', 'large' 
or 'x-large'. 

- 

Of note, the wiki explicitly states that the wild-card selector "*" does 
*not* work on Windows. 

If you still can't get it to work, try the settings.ini method. 

Regards, 
Adrien

Re: [GNC] How can I refund this payment through PayPal, using business feature?

[Dr. David Kirkby]

I think I have achieved this with two reversing transactions, done in the
following order.

1)
Credit: Liabilities:Accounts Payable:PayPal
Debit: Expenses:Postage and Delivery

That makes the balance on Liabilities:Accounts Payable:PayPal -*£1 *

2)
Debit: Liabilities:Accounts Payable:PayPal
Credit: Assets:Current Assets:Checking Account

That seems to get back to where I started, with £100, and zero everywhere
else.

Re: [GNC] Changing typeface using CSS (Windows 10)

[TERRENCE BRANSCOMBE]

Hi, Glenn. 

Progress! 

Thanks for your question regarding the contents of my gtk-3.0.css file. As it 
happens, I was using a sample file I pulled from (the Wiki?) that contained 
several lines like this: 

.gnc-class-user-x { property: value } 
.gnc-class-user-y { property: value } 
... 

>From what I could tell, none of the property: value pairs worked on my system. 

However, once I removed them, leaving the file with just the one setting, 
gnucash reflected the new font setting! Here's what worked (for me): 

* { 
font: 18pt "Microsoft Consolas"; 
} 

Thank you for the tip!

Re: [GNC] Rounding discrepancy in payment processing

[Alaa Zeineldine]

Hello Murugan,
I went ahead and created a Yen A/R account under the default A/R account. I 
then added an invoice for your Yen based Customer 1, with a value of 236.78. 
The value of this invoice is rounded up in the totals and the A/R Aging report. 
On the other hand, values of the dollar-based customers are not affected. 
I also added an invoice to a dollar client. No rounding or discrepancies 
exhibited in this case.
This is closer to the behavior of my actual live setup, except that in my setup 
rounding happens for all clients, including dollar clients.
The resulting test .gnucash file is attached for your perusal.

Alaa

Hello Murugan,

Thanks. I opened the file you sent and saw the new customer with the new 
invoice you created, which seems to be empty. 

I think the problems begin when an invoice with an amount is created. In this 
case, GC will require an A/R account with the same currency as the customer. 
That is when discrepancies begin to appear.

I have a question before I proceed with adding test invoices. In my original 
live setup, I have the non-dollar A/R accounts as children of the dollar 
(default) A/R account, so that the parent account always shows the total A/R 
amount.

• My question is whether this is the correct setup, and if not, where should 
the A/R accounts for the secondary currencies be placed?

The rounding occurs based on the customer currency , so if your base currency

it will round it , 

 

Can you look up one customer and tell me the currency of the customer and

Thanks for looking into this. I checked a number of customers, and each shows

Please note the reply to David Kirkby that I sent to the list. I created a

[GNC] How can I refund this payment through PayPal, using business feature?

[Dr. David Kirkby]

I'm trying to work out how to refund a payment, made to a vendor (Royal
Mail) using PayPal to pay for this.

The attached file is very similar to the standard business accounts, with
the bare minimum of changes needed to demonstrate my problem.  The only
real changes I have made are

1) Added a PayPal account - Assets:Current Assets: PayPal
2) Made Liabilities:Accounts Payable a placeholder account.
3) Added Liabilities: Accounts Payable:Bank
4) Added Liabilities: Accounts Payable:PayPal
5) Added Royal Mail as a vendor.
6) Set the opening balance on the checking account to £100. The PayPal
balance is £0.


*Next I generated a Bill for Royal Mail for £1 for postage, and posted that
to *

*Liabilities: Accounts Payable:PayPal *

*using the expense account Expense:Postage and Delivery. *


*Next I paid PayPal, using the bank account. *


*At this point the expenses risen to £1 due to the postage, and the balance
of the bank account has reduced from £100 to £99. *

The
*£1 paid was actually for Royal Mail to collect the package, but I realised
it would not be ready in time, so cancelled the collection. *

I assume there are going to be 2 stages to this.
1) Royal Mail gives a *£1 *refund to PayPal.
2) I transfer the PayPal balance of *£1 *back to my bank account.

Re: [GNC] Changing typeface using CSS (Windows 10)

[Adrien Monteleone]

My understanding is that even using the term 'CSS' with respect to GTK 
is a stretch. It certainly is not conformant in many other areas, but 
that's good to know for browsers.

However, quoting is always harmless.

Re: [GNC] Rounding discrepancy in payment processing

[Alaa Zeineldine]

Hello Murugan,

Thanks. I opened the file you sent and saw the new customer with the new 
invoice you created, which seems to be empty. 

I think the problems begin when an invoice with an amount is created. In this 
case, GC will require an A/R account with the same currency as the customer. 
That is when discrepancies begin to appear.

I have a question before I proceed with adding test invoices. In my original 
live setup, I have the non-dollar A/R accounts as children of the dollar 
(default) A/R account, so that the parent account always shows the total A/R 
amount.

• My question is whether this is the correct setup, and if not, where should 
the A/R accounts for the secondary currencies be placed?

Regards,

 

Alaa

hi Alaa

 

i have created a customer called customer 1 with their currency as Yen.  i have 
created a invoice also for your reference. you can try creating new invoices 
with franctions for them and you can see the rounding

Hello Murugan,

 

I did lookup a number of customers, each of which had a USD currency, and their 
invoices were also USD, but rounding still occurs for them.

 

Can you elaborate on what you mean by “a customer currency with no fractions”?

 

Regards,

 

Alaa

Alaa 

 

The rounding occurs based on the customer currency , so if your base currency 
and customer currency are USD , it will not have any problem , but in case you 
have a customer currency with no fractions , even when you create USD invoice 
it will round it , 

 

Can you look up one customer and tell me the currency of the customer and 
invoice currency 

 

 

Regard

 

Murugan

Hello Murugan,

 

Thanks for looking into this. I checked a number of customers, and each shows 
the currency that was entered when I created the customer initially. I also 
checked a number of invoices and found that the currency for the invoice was 
consistent with that of the customer.

 

Please note the reply to David Kirkby that I sent to the list. I created a 
minimal test .gnucash file with only one currency and tried a number of 
experiments with it. This did not exhibit the problem. This of course is much 
simpler than my real setup where I have clients with different currencies, and 
also bank accounts with different currencies.

hi Alaa

 

Can you please do a quick check

 

1.  find customer
2.  view/edit
3.  Billing information 
4.  What currency is being shown in this .  

i was able to recreate the issue in a test file and i think this could be the 
issue.

Yes they do show up. It would probably be worth your while creating a test 
.gnucash file, emailing that, and let people see if they get the problem with 
your file. 



Thanks for your help.

I thought that the 6th account (VAT) was run independently of the other 5,
but it is a liability. As a test, I stuck an opening balance of £100 and
saw the Equity go to  -£100. I'm a bit puzzled why it is separated out, and
not just stuck under liabilities.
