Re: [GNC] Report seems to pull wrong amount from transaction

The report started out as a blank transaction report (from the Reports>Transaction Report menu pulldown), which I then modified as required. Does that qualify as a "custom report"? I never heard of trading accounts, but from what I just read in the wiki, it seems to relate to multi-currency

Simply put: - I'm not the one using it - it's to prevent casually or accidentally displaying the data - considering the external value of personal cashbook data this very accessible process kindly provided by a community member seems fit-for-purpose - GnuPG may well offer better security but it's

Hi John. I did go into aqbanking and needed to reassociate the username with the accounts -- for some reason that part was not migrated properly. All I did was go into each account and choose the username to associate and it worked after the upgrade to the new release. I had backed up

Art, you’re welcome and I’m fine with just list messages. I’m glad you got it resolved. (just curious, is this a custom report?) The price db *should* get a ’transaction’ type entry for every such buy/sell transaction. You might need to have trading accounts turned on for that, I’m not

Encryption is very personal and also very hard to get right.  1.  Personal.  You might prefer a commercial product (PGP) while I prefer open source (GnuPG). 2.  Hard.  Simply XOR and many short-bit keys are now easily breakable.  Even those who create methods (two-fish, RSA, etc) make mistakes

Didn't work for me. I installed the updated aqbanking package and still get the error. Anthony, did you have to go into aqbanking and recreate the accounts in order for download transactions to work? On Sun, May 10, 2020 at 5:03 PM Anthony Joseph Messina < amess...@messinet.com> wrote: > On

I think D. wins this round. Not exactly the right answer, but close enough that it pointed me to the explanation. I hope you'll forgive the longish explanation that follows. My report apparently uses the number of shares x the price per share to compute the dollar amount. Possibly the dollar

The command suggested by Robert Kesterson works very well for me. I have been using it in Terminal to keep two sets of books open while I found the time to create an automator script to add to my startup routine. Thank you for that, Robert. However, there is one small problem. Appending

As always, thanks for your considered advice David. It's a single entity where everything is shared except for specific income and expenses. Separate books are not-on. I'm understanding you are suggesting a separate subaccount for each Enterprise/Project under the existing CoAs (eg

Hmm.. Not sure why I had Transaction Report in my head. If the report in question is the TXF then indeed that price source option exists and selecting ‘Nearest Transaction Date’ *should* produce the correct results. Regards, Adrien > On May 12, 2020 w20d133, at 10:47 PM, Christopher Lam >

As of mid 2020, Stefan's option 2 is still the only way to go. It achieves what is required by the OP, and given where gnucash is right now, is probably the only way to go for a foreseeable future. Just a note to developers who have done an absolutely amazing job pulling together this project.

Er ... no encryption. https://wiki.gnucash.org/wiki/FAQ#Q:_Can_you_please_add_a_password_feature.3F ...[No] The actual problem is access to personal data on a work supplied computer. An optional program based backup is more appropriate. GnuCash won't install but thankfully there is a portable
