I swear I do not have a library/application support/GnuCash folder on my Mac, either on my harddrive or in my user library. I have used similar folders for various applications in the past but GnuCash has not shown up. Maybe Mac is doing something different. I really have spent all the time I

Amen. I appreciate all the help, and at one time I might have been able to tackle it but at this point I give it a shot and then give up and recognize that it is beyond me.**I agree that the best option is to ask the developers nicely to include this feature in future

Is there a way to customize the font size in GnuCash? I do not have an easy time reading screens and I also have arthritis in my hands, which means I need a bigger target for my cursor. I looked at the documentation and all I could find was a style sheet for reports. My built-in Mac tricks for

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

Sounds promising. It seems to me if I posted a check, for example, directly to a "tithe payable" liability account I would not need a separate tithe expense account. For something like "household maintenance" or "emergency" reserve funds there would be a fairly large credit balance sitting

t, there's no need to do so just for reporting purposes. Reports can show expenses (or anything else) monthly, yearly, for just a few days, or one day only if you like. Regards, Adrien On 8/4/20 10:07 AM, Marilyn Graves Kimple via gnucash-user wrote: > I have used double-entry bookkeeping

I have used double-entry bookkeeping although I am not trained. In the past I have used what I called 'fund' accounts as sub-accounts for my equity account: home maintenance, tithe, and emergency savings, for example. I divide my 'profits' each month and accrue them through an expense account
