[GNC] DRP accounts, portfolio reports and making sense of the numbers
Somehow my previous email was sent before I had finished typing it. I have an investment of NAB shares that I acquired as part of their employee incentive program years ago and I'm trying to figure out the best way to record it in GnuCash. The shares were worth $3000 at the time of allotment. They were released to me at the value of $2732.85. They pay a regular dividend twice a year. That dividend is reinvested as part of a dividend reinvestment program (DRP). Any remainder from the DRP is held over until the next cycle. So take the payment on 2008-12-17. There was 24.25 held over from the previous cycle. The dividend was also 24.25. Total to reinvest is 48.50. Shares 2 @ 18.64 = 37.28 Remainder held until next cycle 48.50 - 37.28 = 11.22. [image: image.png] Now, in the portfolio report, if I set the date ot the date of that transaction, I get: [image: image.png] 'Money in' should be $2732.85 but it includes the 13.03 that was used from the held over dividend? I don't feel like it should, as I have not contributed any money into the system. The accounts are laid out as below: [image: image.png] Should the DRP Holding account have a different type? Should it be located somewhere else? Is there a better way to record this? -- Cheers, Andrew. ___ 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.

Re: [GNC] Gnc 4.1 Make Fail - MX-LINUX (Debian Buster)
I'd guess from the subject they're running Debian Buster (10), which unfortunately I don't have installed anywhere useful at the moment. I'm running Debian Bullseye (11) and did not have any issues building 4.1 from source, so perhaps upgrading to that is an option?

Re: [GNC] Fractional Hours?
Ok, thank you for your help. I had a look at the eguile file for the report and it calls fmtnumeric for the qty. It looks like that's changed in the utilities file along the way from: (define-public (fmtnumeric n) ;; Format gnc-numeric n with as many decimal places as required (fmtnumber (gnc-numeric-to-double n))) To: (define-public (fmtnumber n) ;; Format a number (integer or real) into something printable (number->string (if (integer? n) (inexact->exact n) n))) I created a copy of the eguile file in my home directory and pointed my report to use that, put a call the contents of the old function directly in place where qty is printed and it now works cleanly. Here's a diff: --- /usr/share/gnucash/scm/gnucash/report/taxinvoice.eguile.scm 2020-07-08 10:38:56.578832054 +1000 +++ "/srv/home/aclark/Documents/Account Keeping/taxinvoice.eguile.scm" 2020-07-08 10:39:36.206075678 +1000 @@ -351,7 +351,7 @@ - + I don't know if that's the best fix or if there's a more suitable function to be calling there?

Re: [GNC] Fractional Hours?
Sorry, I misspoke in my previous. That setting is already in place, but this isn't a price. It's an actual amount that really should be decimal. Saying I'm billing for 171/2 hours work is confusing. It shows in both the Tax Invoice report and the Australian Tax Invoice report.

Re: [GNC] Fractional Hours?
That setting is in place. This is showing up under the hours column for an invoice, a dollar amount, not a fraction display in a conversion.

Re: [GNC] dpkg-builder
I don't have an Ubuntu machine to test on, and this probably isn't the cleanest way to build a package (it's been a while for me) but under buster to build the package from source and make a deb: sudo apt install fakeroot quilt sudo apt build-deps gnucash apt source gnucash cd gnucash-3.4 export QUILT_PATCHES=debian/patches export QUILT_REFRESH_ARGS="-p ab --no-timestamps --no-index" quilt push -a vi debian/rules and add fakeroot to the start of line 31 ./debian/rules binary That basic build process should be fairly similar under Ubuntu to get the existing package. Once you can built the package as distributed by the Ubuntu folks you can then pull down whatever source you want to and use a similar process to build a package The version numbers used to build the packages are stored in files named debian/[package]/DEBIAN/control On Mon, 21 Jan 2019 at 05:33, Stephen M.

[GNC] X Forwarding starts session on remote machine?
Hi, I came home and logged in to my main machine (discus) again, directly on the console. Now, when I ssh in from my laptop (pleco) with -X and start GNUCash, it starts on the my main machine's X server. e.g. aclark@pleco 0 ~ $ ssh discus -X -v OpenSSH_7.9p1 Debian-4, OpenSSL 1.1.1a 20 Nov 2018 debug1: Reading configuration data /home/aclark/.ssh/config debug1: Reading configuration data /etc/ssh/ssh_config debug1: /etc/ssh/ssh_config line 19: Applying options for * debug1: Connecting to discus.ajfclark.com [192.168.1.4] port 22. debug1: Connection established.

Re: [GNC] .deb package
Thanks Stephen, How is this different to the package in the testing distribution by Dmitry Smirnov that's listed as 3.3-2+b2 ( https://packages.debian.org/buster/gnucash)? Is it based on his package?

Re: [GNC] GNUCash never starts over forwarded X session
I ended up resizing a partition, installing Debian and now forwarding via ssh to Xorg running on that works fine. I guess there must be some issue with my windows setup and the Xming x server.

[GNC] Biils in credit
I get a bill from my electricity provider. For part of the year, the solar feed in payments mean our bill is actually in credit. eg. service charge: $30 electicity used: $100 GST (Goods and Services Tax): $13 Solar feed in: -$170 Total owing: -$27 Then on the next bill the balance carreis over and the amount we're in credit goes up. There's nothing to pay on the bills, but when the due date comes GNUCash starts bugging me to pay them. I've been paying them from an asset account created to keep track of this balance. What the best way to keep track of this? -- Cheers, Andrew. ___ 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.

Yes, when I'm home I use GNUCash on the machine and it works fine. I'm only tryign to use the frowarded session because I'm away at the moment. I've previously done this and it worked fine.

[GNC] GNUCash never starts over forwarded X session
Hi, I used to be able to forward gnucash over ssh to a local xming server. It seems since upgrading to GnuCash 3.3 Build ID: 3.3+ (2018-09-29) I can no longer do this. The program starts, the splash screen displays, but the status message stays on gnucash/engine forever. I'm running buster/sid Debian on the server end, forwarding the X session via ssh to Xming 6.9.0.31 running on Windows 10. I've also tried forwarding Xnest and then running GNUCash in that, but that hangs at the same place. Any ideas where to look? -- Cheers, Andrew. ___ 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.
