 Hi Brook



You are correct in that reports are in html. However, all you have to do 
is highlight the whole report with the mouse. With that done do a 
Control and C copy. Next open your spread sheet and paste.




Alternatively save the report, then open it with your spreadsheet. You 
will likely get asked about the document layout - it is Tab delimited. 
Having chosen that the file shoul load. You can then save it in the 
native format of the spreadsheet.

Pete

Hi Everybody


Thanks Murugan.  Glad to know it works in Excel. For those of us on 
pensions who may be using LibreOffice Calc your exported report will 
work fine with no error messages,  If you save it, you can then have it 
in one of the spreadsheet formats.

Re: [GNC] Reporting Woes - Newbie incompetence - SOLVED!

2023-03-24 Thread p.f.cuthb...@btinternet.com p.f.cuthbert--- via gnucash-user



Hi Maf (and everybody who has taken the trouble to respond to this 
query)



Thank you all for your thoughts.  I am amazed to have an inbox full 
already.


I have investigated Maf's suggestion of using the Transaction Report and 
have managed to get out something like what I was seeking.  I was amused 
that my first attempt was all for 2019 transactions despite getting the 
date limits set correctly to 2023.  Attempt two was much closer and 
included 2019 transactions forward to my set closing date.  Clearly this 
is going to work, but only once I find all the correct settings!


Thanks too for colleagues in the US, some of whom have made clear 
instructions for how to use the system for submitting a US Tax return. 
I am sorry that I failed to mention where I was located.  However, there 
may be Newbies in the US who will benefit from your suggestions.  Here 
in the UK the tax authorities have moved to simpler and more simple 
accounts.  I have to certify that my return is based on cash in and cash 
out and contains no accruals or prepayments.


Picking up on Brook's point about getting the data out of the Report and 
into a spreadsheet, that is quite straight forward. Simply place the 
cursor in the top left hand corner then click, hold down the left button 
and drag down to the right hand corner. When you release the mouse 
button the whole page should be high lighted.  Control and C will copy 
that page and then in your spreadsheet you can do a Control V or or use 
Edit Paste Special.  You may be asked about the format of the paste.  It 
is Tab deliminated so if you choose Tab and nothing else (ignore, comma, 
space, etc) your data will layout in the spreadsheet as on screen.


Thank you again.  I will now get down to playing with the parameters 
until it gives what I thought I had asked it to supply.


Best wishes

Pete

Re: [GNC] Reporting Woes - Newbie incompetence

2023-03-24 Thread Adrien Monteleone
If the Transaction Report can't get you what you want, consider an 
Account Report.


You could filter any register to show just the transactions you are 
concerned with.


If the filters are not quite nuanced enough for you, or if you want 
multiple accounts in one report, then craft a Find set of criteria to 
get you exactly the transactions you want which will appear in a single 
search result tab in register form. Then simply run an Account Report 
while viewing those results.

Adrien

Excel will also open an HTML file directly, in the File » Open dialog.
(That's Excel 2010 in Windows 10. I can't imagine later versions would
have lost that capability, but I don't know about Excel in other OSes.)

The end of the UK Tax Year approaches and I am thinking about my tax
return. When I used Quicken there was a report that listed every
transcation in particular accounts which was useful since not all my
accounts are related to the Return.  I had been hoping to do the same in
GNU but I don't seem to be able to find a way to do something so simple.
(Yes I have read all about Reporting but am not a lot the wiser)

Opening a relevant account, choosing Select All, Copy and Paste into a
spreadsheet does not seem to be possible either.

I am sure that somebody has worked out how to do this hence my request.


Keep in mind jurisdictions differ, so what I am about to describe would 
be US (and 501(c)3 non-profits)


Gnucash is a basic accounting system, keeps standard double entry books. 
You need to set up your CaO so that the data will be usefully grouped 
for tax and other reporting purposes. BUT  also keep in mind that 
you might have to do some work outside of gnucash because you might need 
to be reporting to different entities (the state might require different 
from the feds) and you can have only one hierarchy of accounts.


For example, "printing and postage" is a line item on the 990/990-EZ 
*Federal" so each expense parent that has those as a component of that 
parent's total* should have a separate "printing and postage" child. If 
what you "pay" and intern is partly PAY and partly Mileage Reimbursement 
you'd want those as separate children under that intern (because the pay 
part might mean a 1099-MISC)


In other words, it is going to be up to YOU to create a suitable CoA so 
it will make it easy to get the data you need for the reports you must 
fill out.

Re: [GNC] Reporting Woes - Newbie incompetence

2023-03-24 Thread Alex Aycinena
Bear in mind that that option is designed for US Income Taxes only. I
believe someone did a version for Germany but am not sure if it is
up-to-date.

You can, of course, try to use it anyway.

Perhaps a response from a gnucash user in the UK might be helpful?

Try:
  Edit:
Tax Report Options
to set up which (Income & Expense) accounts matter.

Then, run:
  Reports:
Tax Schedule Report & TFX Export

This is mentioned in the Tutorial and Concepts Guide (search for Tax Report)
