Not working for me either.

Was there someone that had a work-around for GnuCash?

Re: [GNC] Release Notes?

2023-05-04 Thread john
Also https://www.gnucash.org/news.phtml. At the bottom of the page there's an 
Older Announcements link to a page with the release notes for everything back 
to 1.2.1 in 2000, though the notes were pretty sparse at the time.

There's also $PREFIX/share/doc/gnucash/NEWS with mostly the same information. 
$PREFIX depends on the OS/installation. In the macOS bundle it's 
Gnucash.app/Contents/Resources, on Windows it's C:\Program Files (x96)\gnucash, 
on most distro installs it will be /usr, and on flatpak it's 
/var/lib/flatpak/app/org.gnucash.GnuCash/current/active/files/.

Re: [GNC] Lost Keyboard Accelerator feature

added note this was installed as per 4.9 release notes.

Change the handling of accelerator maps. Gtk no longer supports changing these 
from the menus and the save no longer writes out the accelerators that have 
their default values, so to assist users editing them we have generated default 
ones that we include with GnuCash and have disabled saving when quitting 
GnuCash. At startup GnuCash will check for the presence of the file 
accelerator-map in 
GNC_CONFIG_HOME
 and if it's not found will copy in the default one.

So if you delete your existing accelerator-map file and restart Gnucash, it 
will copy the default one which you can modify

I am experiencing this same problem as Michael with key actions for the

[GNC] Trouble Changing Imported Descriptions

2023-05-04 Thread Paul Kroitor
This is part 2 of a two-part question about imported transactions.

 

My bank invariably imports transactions in barely readable technical jargon.
For example, a debit card purchase at Villeneuve & Sons comes into the
Aqbanking importer as:

 

"[PR]L. VILLENEUVE &"

 

My problem is that it's nearly impossible to correct this description to
"Villeneuve". I can type V, Vi, or even Villeneuve into the description and,
upon pressing enter, it will jump back to the original description (because,
apparently, that string is in the original version of the field, despite in
being in a different case). Even typing Villeneuve doesn't work. The
only way it will retain my lower-case version is if I type
Villeneuve, which it will keep (because Villeneuve followed
two spaces is not in the original).

 

I understand why Gnucash needs to consider Villeneuve and VILLENEUVE as
being the same entry, but not why it can't see that a manual override to
"Villeneuve" should be reverted back to "[PR]L. VILLENEUVE &". There must be
a way to say I want to enter my own version of the name!

 

This is driving me crazy!

Re: [GNC] Memorized Payees (aka Import Map) vs Renaming Rules

2023-05-04 Thread Paul Kroitor
Correction:

So for example, an incoming bank transaction:

TF 2023 2034-302   D $100

Could be automatically changed to:

Transfer to Fred   Monthly Alimony D $100

The first facility adds the "Monthly Alimony" counter-account, and the
second does the description change ("TF 2023 2034-302" => Transfer to Fred).

(Note the key fixed typo at the end of the previous line!)
Sorry for the confusion.

Subject: [GNC] Memorized Payees (aka Import Map) vs Renaming Rules

Hi, I have two (mildly) related questions, but I will post them separately,
so the threads don't get confused.

 

Quicken has two facilities upon transaction import that interact with each
other:

1.Suggests a counter account (Quicken calls some of them
categories) based upon what was done with earlier transactions with the same
characteristics.

2.Translates the bank-supplied description entry into something
more friendly (Quicken call these "Renaming Rules").

 

So for example, an incoming bank transaction:

 

TF 2023 2034-302   D $100

 

Could be automatically changed to:

 

Transfer to Fred   Monthly Alimony D $100

 

The first facility adds the "Monthly Alimony" counter-account, and the
second does the description change ("TF 2023 2034-302" => Monthly Alimony).

 

My question is this: Gnucash does the first part well with its Import Map
feature. Is there anything that can do the second part for me?

 

Thanks as always for all help,

Paul

Re: [GNC] Auto commit with auto save?

2023-05-04 Thread David Carlson
David,

Perhaps you could call it a work-around, but years ago I trained myself to
never leave my computer without looking at the titlebar for that teltale
asterisk before the filename, and saving the file if it is there.  Then, if
GnuCash complains about an unsaved transaction, I get a chance to fix it.

[GNC] Auto commit with auto save?

2023-05-04 Thread David G. Pickett via gnucash-user
I often accidentally leave a transaction complete but with the cursor of that 
sheet still on the same line, so despite an aggressive auto save setting, such 
a transaction is not committed to the saved image.  Of course, if it is not in 
valid form, it cannot be committed!  But if the host goes down or gnucash 
terminates for any reason not a stable interactive exit, despite the auto save, 
the entire transaction or any change is lost.  I would like an option to 
auto-commit such transactions, if valid, before the timed auto save.

For me, this creates loss of input when I run my nightly cron job for quotes, 
where I kill any running gnucash and remove any lock to allow the quote 
additions.  (A side thought would to have the quote fetch built into the 
interactive gnucash such that it has a way to get quotes without being killed.  
Maybe a gnucash service daemon that could negotiate the updates with any 
running interactive gnucash or do the updates if no interactive gnucash is 
running?  That in turn suggests a gnucash with a service and multiple 
interactive sessions so changes in any interactive session could be notified to 
other interactive sessions, supporting both quotes from a crontab scheduled 
service internal or external, and multiple interactive users to support larger 
enterprises.)

You say 20, I counted 30 on macOS :-)  The thing I don't like much about it
is you enter for example an e and you get 20/30 entries then typing further
letters to refine the search it only seems to narrow down the results from
the initial subset of search results instead of refreshing the actual
search results.

Re: [GNC] Turn of drop list when entering data in memo/description line

Am 02.05.23 um 14:49 schrieb Adrien Monteleone:

If 4.14 is not available in your distro's repos, you can certainly use
the flatpak. You should probably remove 5.0 though first.


Sadly, code.gnucash.org/builds/flatpak/maint/ does not list 4.14. The
latest one is 4.13-164 from 2023-03-18. Later build logs tell me:
"error: Writing content object: min-free-space-percent '3%' would be
exceeded, at least 143.4 kB requested". So the latest maint branch
versions are missing, including 4.14. But I'm fine with 4.13-164 as a
fallback.

As long as you enter the "--branch=" option with the "flatpak run"
command, many different gnucash flatpak versions can reside beside each
other on your system happily and can be separately started. This is what
I have done after the publishing of GnuCash 5.0.

Greetings,

I just upgraded to version 5.0 and I would like to know how to turn
OFF the drop list when entering a description in the memo line.

I can only enter 3 letters before it seizes up and I must cancel my

first write it in a text file and then copy/paste it onto the line.



In fact there is an option "Auto-raise lists" in the register
preferences. But at least in my current 5.0-159 build switching off does
not change the behavior of the description drop down list. Allowing to
switch it off could be an improvement in your case.

But I cannot completely follow the issue. In my case (flatpak GnuCash
5.0-159 on Ubuntu 22.04 LTS), the drop down list does not prevent me
from entering some more text. And as soon as the entered text is found
in less descriptions, the list shrinks, until it disappears completely
(i. e. when it's a complete new description).

Re: [GNC] Tags for classification/category/dimension transaction report

2023-05-04 Thread Vincent Dawans
For those interested in this feature, it's good to hear feedback and
interest.

For general feedback or support, I think the original "bug" (enhancement)
report is probably best so there is a track record of it.
https://bugs.gnucash.org/show_bug.cgi?id=113772

For specific feedback about what is currently being implemented, there is
also the option to reply/comment on the various conversations in the Push
Request (jargon for the discussion where the code change is being
proposed). https://github.com/Gnucash/gnucash/pull/1623


It's an evolving conversation that requires consensus at some point, on
smaller and bigger issues, with respect for contradicting opinions and the
effort, needs and experience of core developers in terms of UI and coding
standards as well as maintenance and user support considerations. At a
minimum, this first simple (and limited) implementation will be offered in
one form or another, even if it takes the form of a custom report to start
(custom reports are user defined, so anybody can add one to their own
installation based on a provided template, but they are not part of the
official release or maintenance, hence not guaranteed to be maintained).
That's because until users can try it, I think it can be hard to provide
feedback.  Some guidance will be provided on how to install it as a custom
report if we go that route first, but this is still being discussed. It
will be important for users to understand the limitations of this first
implementation, so we will need to work on some wiki documentation as well.
Whether it leads to a fuller implementation of analytical accounting
features to gnucash will come down to user interest and participation in
doing the actual work (not all of it is coding, a lot of it is developing
and commenting on functional requirements, writing documentation, answering
user questions, etc).

Sincerely,

Vincent Dawans

Thanks, Adrian.

I went straight from 4.1 to 5.1 (NOT 5.1.1, as I said earlier).

I’ve since found that "e” works - opening an Account for editing - 
even though that key combination is commented out in the accelerator map file.

I’ll have a look at the release notes.

Re: [GNC] 5.1 - New Description Memory Option?

2023-05-04 Thread Adrien Monteleone
I think it is the same/similar code used for account selection. (and 
that feature *greatly* speeds up entry)


The idea is that you don't *have* to know or recall how something is 
spelled *in order* and thus get all options so you can choose the right one.


While that is intended, and can be helpful, there are certainly times 
where it slows you down. I haven't noticed on the Description line, but 
I know account lookup is limited to 20 results. This can pose a problem 
if the desired account is not shown in those 20 results as you can't 
scroll to it at all. This forces a more complicated 'lookup' entry or 
resorting to the old-school a:b:c shorthand to get what you want. I can 
only imagine that if the Description field has this same limitation, 
that can be another complication.

Seconded!  This would be a massive improvement to the excellent GnuCash, 
in my opinion.  Thank you so much, Vincent!  As described, this feature 
would add so much more utility in so many areas of reporting.


Besides flywire's "classification/category/dimension," I would also add 
"jobs/projects" as keywords for anyone hunting down this thread later.

It's okay this one time, but please always use 'reply-all' or 
'reply-list' to keep messages on the list. If you're replying to a 
digest, replace the subject line with the subject of the message you are 
replying to. (a simple copy/paste from the digest contents near the top

highlight the portion you want to quote, then hit reply, and the message 
will be automatically trimmed.


Others might be able to help more than I, and everyone gets to benefit

See the wiki, https://wiki.gnucash.org/wiki/Roadmap, and 
https://wiki.gnucash.org/wiki/Release_Schedule.


Note that some of those 6.0 goals were goals for 5.0 but are still 
works-in-progress.


Concerning PieCash, I saw a comment recently that it is quite aged and 
not maintained. Some 5.0 changes, I think, render it either not as 
useful, or not usable at all.


With respect to performance, I'm still thinking there is something in 
particular about your book that is at issue. Check the wiki about 
getting a Tracefile and running from the command line to see if there 
are any error messages. The devs likely want to know if you are getting 
that level of slowdown. A bug report might be in order as well. See this 
wiki section on various troubleshooting steps:

I have indeed a high number of investment transactions. Between myself and my 
spouse, 8 investment accounts, more than 15 years history, on average 100 open 
positions daily. I actually stopped using GnuCash for tracking investments due 
to performance considerations one year ago and I've migrated to a more suitable 
platform.

I am wondering if you might know when SQL modernization could happen and, maybe 
you can give some tips on how to clean up all investment transactions from the 
database. I've tried using piecash, got some results but it was too time 
consuming.

Best regards.

I did that and it's now only 12! The oddity for me is that not only is the
list long but in my mind typing "jo" should start a list that begins with
jo, not al johnsons, happy joes and jimmie johns!

Jack:

This is being discussed in this bug report
https://bugs.gnucash.org/show_bug.cgi?id=798829

I think it would be good to have more users express their views and needs
about this feature in that report so the developers have a better sense of
the various issues. In expressing your views, it's also good to offer what
sort of tweak for alternative behavior you would want to see, so the
developers can get a sense of what users want (instead of just complaints
about what they don't want) and see how they can reconcile different needs.

It has been discussed on the email list before as well but then ideas etc.
get lost a bit. With the bug report it's all in one place. So I encourage
all with comments about this feature to put them on the bug report.

Re: [GNC] [GNC-dev] GnuCash 5.1 Released

2023-05-04 Thread Geert Janssens
Indeed. I have looked at the build failure, which is a bit odd. It complains 
about a 
directory already existing while installing the Portuguese documentation.

I have checked all changes between the 5.0 release and the 5.1 release, but I 
don't see 
any change that could trigger this.

So instead I have restarted the build and it seems to pass now. Flathub is 
currently 
committing the successful builds. So in a few hours the new version should be 
available 
there.

Regards,

Geert

Re: [GNC] Error in Mutual Funds value

2023-05-04 Thread Kalpesh Patel
Hmmm, how are you downloading QFX format? Vanguard provides native CSV or
QIF formatted downloads only (different format than QFX) - all three types
needs to be imported but have to choose the correct drop down in the import
menu choices in the drop down. Of course you could be holding funds with a
third party financial marts, likes of Fidelity and Schwab, but in those
cases in most part importing QFX is known to work just fine. There is a
back-end way of getting QFX formatted transactions from Vanguard and that
also works fine when imported.

 

Something is definitely odd here if the file is downloaded from Vanguard
directly. Can you try to import QFX file in a new file with no accounts and
no securities/funds in it? It should prompt you to create funds account and
the holding accounts.

All of the transactions were entered manually. I did try to get the
transactions with a CVS and an QFX files but no transactions were found. I
went through all of the Mutual Funds in the pop ups. There were no results.

 

I checked the entries several times to make sure that the price data were
correct and the fund shares quantities matched. I also entered the data in a
spread sheet which confirmed the statements.

 

All the best

[GNC] 5.1 - New Description Memory Option?

2023-05-04 Thread Jack Slater
In the new build, if I type a "j" I now get a pop-up list with the 1st
option listed as "adj". I then have to down-arrow past 20ish entries to get
to "john".

In past builds, typing the same "j" would pop up the last "j" I had
entered, which was in most cases "john", the same business name that I
enter frequently.

I'm hoping there is an option to turn OFF the new process! If so please
tell me how. If not, we need it ASAP. The new process is wayy slower.

[GNC] Lost Keyboard Accelerator feature

2023-05-04 Thread Michael Hendry
On Tuesday (2nd May) I upgraded to version 5.1.1 on my iMac (Ventura 13.3.1), 
and have lost the use of Cmd-1, Cmd-2 and Cmd-3 as keyboard accelerators to 
change between Basic Ledger, Autosplit Ledger and Transaction Journal views.

Cmd-j switches between accounts, as before.

The accelerator-map file(date-stamped 2nd May) includes the following 
(uncommented) lines:

(gtk_accel_path "/GncPluginPageRegisterActions/JumpTransactionAction" 
"j")

(gtk_accel_path "/GncPluginPageRegisterActions/ViewStyleBasicAction" 
"1")
(gtk_accel_path 
"/GncPluginPageRegisterActions/ViewStyleAutoSplitAction" "2")
(gtk_accel_path "/GncPluginPageRegisterActions/ViewStyleJournalAction" 
"3")

If I remember correctly, the first one (Cmd-j) was already set up by default in 
earlier versions of GNC, but I had to uncomment the last three to enable the 
Journal View accelerators.

Anyone else affected by this?

Michael

Hello community.

I run gnucash 5.1 under Fedora Core 38, mariadb
I had created an account with a separator ":". After getting the error
message (please see attached), I changed the account name accordingly. But
the error message does not go away.

The message pops up when starting gnucash and when trying to save the Alpha
Vantagate Api key. Maybe that explains also why I cannot get online quotes
to work

How can I fix this?

Re: [GNC] Status of SourceForge tip jar

2023-05-04 Thread Brad Morrison
Thank you for making a donation Wally! And thank you Derek for managing 
the SourceForge Tip Jar!


https://gnucash.org/donate.phtml - the GnuCash donation page lists 2 
ways to donate: the SF Tip Jar & the Argenta Bank account in Belguim run 
by Geert Janssens.


In the USA, cash contributions/donations to what are called 501c3 
nonprofit organizations (after the Internal Revenue Code section - 
https://www.irs.gov/charities-non-profits/charitable-organizations/exemption-requirements-501c3-organizations) 
are tax deductible (within limitations) for those US taxpayers that 
itemize their tax deductions 
(https://www.irs.gov/help/ita/can-i-deduct-my-charitable-contributions) 
instead of taking the standard deduction 
(https://www.irs.gov/help/ita/how-much-is-my-standard-deduction & 
https://www.irs.gov/newsroom/deductions-for-individuals-what-they-mean-and-the-difference-between-standard-and-itemized-deductions). 



I have found few projects in the open source world take advantage of 
this legal mechanism to both increase donations from Americans and 
financially benefit their supporters. FreeCAD 
(https://wiki.freecad.org/donate), Open Tax Solver 
(https://please-fund-me.com/cgi-bin/render_fund_page.cgi?fund=67), even 
bigger open source projects like the Linux Mint OS 
(https://linuxmint.com/donors.php) and Libre Office 
(https://www.libreoffice.org/donate/) do not seem to take advantage of 
this tax saving tool for charitable organizations with American 
donors/funders/supporters.


There is also a tool called fiscal sponsorship 
(https://www.councilofnonprofits.org/running-nonprofit/administration-and-financial-management/fiscal-sponsorship-nonprofits) 
that allows one organization to accept and distribute tax deductible 
donations to its member organizations/projects. The Software Freedom 
Conservancy (https://sfconservancy.org/) provides this service 
(https://sfconservancy.org/projects/services/) to many open source 
projects (https://sfconservancy.org/projects/current/), but in my 
attempted interactions with SFC and in speaking with others in the North 
Bay Linux Users Group (NBLUG - https://nblug.org/), I have gotten my 
impression reinforced that SFC is not very responsive to its member 
projects. SFC also refers to another nonprofit fiscal sponsor on its 
website (https://sfconservancy.org/projects/apply/), Software in the 
Public Interest (SPI - https://www.spi-inc.org/), but there may be 
others. Oddly, as I am writing this out and learning more, I see that 
Libre Office is listed as one of the SPI's fiscally sponsored projects 
(https://www.spi-inc.org/projects/ > 
https://www.spi-inc.org/projects/libreoffice/), but Libre Office's 
donation page only specifies the tax deductibility of donations for 
Germans under the "Click here for information about tax deductions" 
section. Oh my, OK, there is a line about donations to Libre Office 
through SPI being tax deductible to Americans under a different section, 
"Click here for bank transfers (eg SEPA), and additional information for 
US residents" - that is not a helpful section/topic design!


I better stop typing and thinking about this subject before I start 
pulling out any more of what limited hair I have left on my head. 
Hopefully, my points about fiscal sponsorship have been made and if 
anyone else is interested, we can discuss the nuances further...
