Re: Gnucash + mysql

Didn't think about that possibility.
Let me try this out too.

Do you know whether there are plans to extend usage of mysql in gnucash?

Thanks. Wolfgang

Company sponsored stock plan

2017-12-28 Thread Wolfgang Paul Rauchholz
Trying to set the following up, but can‘t get it right. I hope to find help
here. That is the scheme:
The base currency is in €.

1) monthly, a certain amount (in €) is taken off salary and invested in
 stocks (in USD)
2) the company adds X-% on top of the amount and stock (in USD) is bought
3) Reporting is done in base currency €.

Once this is done,  I need to add quarterly dividends, but I believe I saw
something in the manual.

Thx for your help.

[GNC] Online quotes

2023-04-22 Thread Wolfgang Paul Rauchholz
Good day!

I installed gnucash-5.0 on fedora core 38
perl-Finance-Quote.noarch-1.5400-3.fc38
and perl-Date-Manip.noarch-6.91-1.fc38 are installed too.
It appears that the auxiliary programs
like gnc-fq-dump, gnc-fq-check, gnc-fq-update were not installed during
compilation.
How can I fix this?

Thanks

[GNC] Company plan for stocks and stock options

2023-04-04 Thread Wolfgang Paul Rauchholz
 Fairly new to gnucash and not a finance export, I want to run all my
personal finances with this great tool.

I installed 5.0 by compiling it under fedora core 37.

I started adding normal daily expenses and all look fine.

One of the doubts I have is how do I correctly add a company plan for stock
options and stock plan that get vested/distributed every year. As I don't
buy them there is no cash leaving my bank account.



Thanks,


Wolfgang

Re: [GNC] Company plan for stocks and stock options

2023-04-05 Thread Wolfgang Paul Rauchholz
Hi Stan / Murugan all,

Thanks for picking up and providing your insight. That was very helpful.
I would assume that options and stocks I have not exercised yet cannot get
managed in gnucash?
Only when exercising options into stocks or selling stock or options?

The objective with gnucash is that I want to manage personal finances;
expense control, planning, etc..


Best regards,

[GNC] Seperator character error message

2023-05-04 Thread Wolfgang Paul Rauchholz
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?
Thanks for your help.

[GNC] Setting up gnucash / stocks

2024-04-27 Thread Wolfgang Paul Rauchholz
Hello community!

I am running the latest gnucash under Fedorca Core.
Finance::Quote is installed and I get quotes for Funds and Stocks.

EUR is the System Currency. The Stock Quotes are in USD

Did I set up the initial balance correctly for Stocks (please see
attached screenshot)? I used the Stock Assistant whose transactional
currency is in EUR, but the stock quotes are in USD. Does this work?


The reporting of the values in EUR does not seem to be correct. How do I set
up currency correctly? In my setup, is USD or EUR the Security?


Thanks for your help.
