So many user comments, questions, suggestions, like the payroll add-on, want

finding my way around the Gnucash code made it difficult so I have great
respect for the business features that Derek has created so far. I started
to think more in terms of a separate payroll program which maintained
It strikes me as the problem is being overthought.
If a spreadsheet can handle the calculations, it can’t be that complicated.
If a spreadsheet can handle creating the proper csv for export and then import
into gnucash, again, it can’t be that complicated.
The complications are jurisdictional
When I think of the requirements for payroll, it seems like it would require
more than a “plug-in” that accepts parameters that vary by jurisdiction. It
would need to be more like a full programming language (well, not full -
arbitrary loop controls not required - for language geeks, it would

Thanks Adrien. The restricted/qualified search string worked great. I
was just searching for FOSS payroll software. Too many wrong results.
I'm thinking your suggestion to use a spreadsheet might be the trick needed.
I'm seeing my friend later today so I'll suggest this as an option too.
