2019-01-08 Thread John Ralls
The answer is probably in app-utils/calculation. All of that was probably written before Guile grew a rational number class and I think that GncNumerics get converted to doubles before being passed to the interest functions. That would pretty much guarantee rounding issues. Regards, John Ralls

Well the SCM has numerous references to "round" and "rounding errors" so it's to be expected. Please file a bug with example numbers, and hopefully these errors may be fixed. On 9/1/19 7:35 am, David Carlson wrote: John, Thanks for the reference. Alas, I will need to do some homework to pr

John, Thanks for the reference. Alas, I will need to do some homework to properly read SCM. There must still be some sort of rounding issue creeping in if the Scheduled Transaction SLR sometimes generates an imbalance from ppmt = pmt - ipmt. David C On Tue, Jan 8, 2019 at 3:44 PM John Ralls w

The thee functions are defined in https://github.com/Gnucash/gnucash/blob/maint/libgnucash/app-utils/fin.scm, prefixed with gnc: (so gnc:ipmt etc.). At line 41ff you'll see that ppmt = pmt - ipmt. Regards, John Ralls > On Jan 8, 2019, at 12:48 PM, David Carlson > wrote: > > My point is tha

My point is that the equations are defined by the assistant, and I think that they can be expressed in a form that concentrates all the errors into one line where a simple rounding would not generate a problem where the parts do not add up to 100%. Granted, the errors may sometimes cause inaccurat

[GNC] Should the CSV Importer obey with the "automatic digital point" setting?

Hi, currently the CSV importer obeys with the “automatic digital point” setting in Preferences->General. IMO this should be changed. The above setting is a convenience for manual input. But csv files are normally generated automatically and often do not include a point for whole figures. In th
