[GNC] Scheduled payment question

Hi, I have several payments coming into my account on a regular basis. One of these comes in every 28 days and two others come in on the last banking day of the i.e. week day provided this is not a Public Holiday. At the moment I have set this to appear in GNU Cash on a monthly basis and

Re: [GNC] Starting Balance in Reconciliation Window wrong

Some users like me did a lot of mis-managed reconciling while importing old data into currently used accounts and just reconciling years of transactions as of the current month instead of trying to obsessively go back years and assign the transactions to years-old statements, especially when

Re: [GNC] Starting Balance in Reconciliation Window wrong

David T. Yes I did correct and eliminate the problem by editing the data file directly and I also agree this is not really viable for the average user. I only had one incorrectly entered date in one account and for users who have many years of data the situation could be considerably more

Re: [GNC] Vendor Refund - Best Practice

I can’t speak to legal or tax requirements, but logistically, you can issue a Credit Note ‘from’ the vendor for the difference, then process one final ‘payment’ on the bill but instead of entering a payment amount, simply select the bill and the credit note. (which should be the same absolute

I'm not very familiar with the Business functions of GnuCash and have been experimenting with them.  I'm looking for a "best practice" and how to accomplish this in GNC: I am treasurer for a non-profit PTA.  We issued a grant to the school.  Over time the school would use the grant and I

Re: [GNC] Should i care about Unrealized Losses/Gain in Balance Sheet ?

While the non-profit I'm involved with does multi-currency transactions, ours is uni-directional and we don't treat it like an investment (stock).  So I don't have experience handling this. My suspicion is that you will need to utilize trading accounts and treat your US bank as an investment

Re: [GNC] Starting Balance in Reconciliation Window wrong

Adrien, I disagree. In earlier versions, a transaction was only considered reconciled or not; its date of reconciliation was not considered. That a spurious date was entered for the reconciliation didn't affect the functionality of the software. Now, it does. That is a change in

Re: [GNC] Help!

I don’t think you have to but there have been lots of bug fixes since 2.6.9. That is several years old. If you want to run the latest, upgrade to 2.6.21 first, save a backup of your data file. Then upgrade to 3.x (currently 3.9). 2.6.21 can read files opened/edited by 3.x. Older versions of

Re: [GNC] GNUCash beginner setup

Not sure, but that might simply be a screen update bug. I don’t often get an Imbalance situation (usually hitting [Enter] at the wrong time) but when I do, I almost always edit from the Imbalance transaction and never had a balance issue. I don’t recall if the real target account register was

Re: [GNC] Getting Report Error

See the wiki about checking the Tracefile and possibly try running from the command line as there may be some output there as well that will shed light on the error. Also, there is a new version of the report in the Experimental menu. Try that one and see if it works. (I think it first

Re: [GNC] Starting Balance in Reconciliation Window wrong

If I understood David correctly, the error was not caused by the change in the reconciliation code, but by David inadvertently entering a short year date. (“20” instead of “2018”, which became “2020”) In that case, since there is no facility to the user to edit reconcile dates, the only option

Re: [GNC] Suggestion: add "balance" variable for scheduled transactions

Adding days is feasible, but I don't think it'll be very useful. It would only be useful if no other transaction was posted in between the scheduled ones. If you're interested in cases where the interested is compounded daily, this isn't the right solution, and I don't think gnucash has a solution

Re: [GNC] Should i care about Unrealized Losses/Gain in Balance Sheet ?

Re: [GNC] Starting Balance in Reconciliation Window wrong

So, David, you're saying you edited the data file directly in order to fix the new reconciliation problem? If so, that's a pretty strong indication to me that this change should get rolled back. There is no situation in which I think an end user should have to edit the data directly in order
