Re: [GNC] Help with mult-currency multi-split import

Hi John, Thanks for the feedback. Always learning. Let me answer. I did check whether this was a currency exchange rate issue. But I'm sure it's not because: (a) I imported daily prices to gnucash prior to export and I pre-converted the currencies using the same price. In this case, the AUD

Re: [GNC] envelope method, equity sub-accounts, cash vs. hybrid vs. accrual accounting

Double-entry means credits equal debits. That situation still holds here. It does introduce some 'noise' into the source register, but that doesn't 'break' double-entry. The easy fix for purposes of reconciliation is to simply mark those budgeting transactions cleared immediately. (since

Re: [GNC] envelope method, equity sub-accounts, cash vs. hybrid vs. accrual accounting

Peter, There is a checkbox at the beginning of reconciliation to 'include sub-accounts'. That should make it easy. GnuCash reconciliation is not scary. You simply enter your statement date and ending balance, then check off each transaction as you match them up to your statement. When

[GNC] Print to file Vs Make Pdf

TL:DR - Linux Version of GnuCash v3.4: "Print" and "Make PDF" now do the same thing on my new install. Do I need an extra plugin or something so that "Make PDF" saves directly to pdf without "printing" and generates a filename from the Invoice number and date? (like it used to for me ) Hi to all

Re: [GNC] envelope method, equity sub-accounts, cash vs. hybrid vs. accrual accounting

I use envelope budgeting, with one actual bank account, represented in Gnucash by multiple subaccounts. The account summary shows me the total amount in the actual account, which I can check against the balance of that account. I have scheduled transactions in Gc that deduct from my usual cash

I was doing the TSLA 5-1 split. I put 40 in Shares. Empty New Price (tried an amount too). Next out of Cash in lieu. Apply in Stock Split Finish. And nada. Cancel and Back buttons are active. Apply is grayed. Cancel cancels and Back goes back. Maybe it’s Elon Sent from my iPhone > On Aug

Hi, I am using version 4.1 on a windows 10 machine and all looks good. I want to use the Income Statement (Multicolumn) report as I prefer it to the P However one of my income accounts is showing a zero balance but when I access the hyper link for overall income the amount is showing... Does

Re: [GNC] envelope method, equity sub-accounts, cash vs. hybrid vs. accrual accounting

"I don't see how the envelope method of budgeting is somehow not compatible with double-entry. One split will be the expenditure, the other will be the appropriate envelope. Filling the envelopes involves splits between cash-on-hand and the various envelopes. Double entry is certainly not

[GNC] Inconsistency Between Balance of Stock Account and Display in Accounts

I am still running GC 2.6.19 under Ubuntu Studio 18.04, but plan to update to Ubuntu Studio 20.04 soon and will then get a newer version of GC. Meanwhile, I have a problem which I find very hard to understand: I purchased 600 shares of a stock last year and sold them again this year. When I

Friends: I first posted to this list back on August 4 and I thank you all for your help. I believe I have my solution; it is working and is just what I want. Warning: those of you who are real accountants will probably be appalled and the rest of you should probably not try this at home.  Here

Hey, a breakthrough maybe, as I just found an example "envelope budget" style report, in http://richwithnojob.com/wp-content/uploads/2017/05/IMG_4816-169x300.png , a May 2017 blog posting titled "How I’m reducing my budget by $1k this month." at WordPress blog-site "Rich With No Job". The blogger

Okay, noted that my post with self-labelled rant was outside bounds accepted by this community. Just enclosing in "begin rant", "end rant" doesn't change that. What I did wrong included, at least, that I characterized two groups and that I cast aspersions and applied negative adjectives,

Re: [GNC] envelope method, equity sub-accounts, cash vs. hybrid vs. accrual accounting

Thanks Christopher for pointing me to that discussion, which is roughly about requesting an envelope method be implemented into GnuCash. I am just beginning to test the budget features within GnuCash. What i see at first looks reasonable: when you begin to create a new budget it provides a big
