As told before currently it can not be used as currency (https://bugs.gnucash.org/show_bug.cgi?id=657215 - Need ability to declare new currencies), but as commodity. So you can at least use it as asset. The easy way would set a fixed rate for 1 XAU = 31.1034768 GAU in both directions and query the currency XAU with F::Q On long term one could write a new Finance::Quote module to get quotes from i.e. https://www.investing.com/currencies/gau-eur. > David > > > On Thu, Sep 6, 2018 at 14:15, Muhammad Bashir Al-Noimi > wrote: On 09/06/2018 09:09 PM, Mike or Penny Novack wrote: > > Not a currency but a commodity.

Re: [GNC] GAU as currency
Of course, Michael, you are right--except for the fact that the ISO currency codes include entries for gold, silver, as well as one or two others, which is what I was referring to. I was anticipating Muhammad's next question. Muhammad, there won't be any way for you to obtain daily prices for a gram of gold, other than to enter it manually.
