Re: Finance::Quote for EE Savings Bonds

David, I'm not sure which item you're referring to, so I'll say a bit about each: (1) As far as I can figure, if I want to add a quote source, like US EE/E/I savings bonds, I have to write my own Perl code to get it done. The existing Finance::Quote modules just don't work, or at least not when I

Finance-Quote 1.47 Unable to retrieve Currency quotes

Hello I apologize for my poor English. I use GnuCash since 2011 and usually I am able to solve this kind of problem by myself if necessary modifing the perl files of Finance::Quote. But now I'm going crazy with this problem. I've got this error since february 14 on two different PC with Ubuntu

Re: Finance::Quote for EE Savings Bonds

Ken- Thank you so much! This worked great. For the record, I: * Saved the file to ~/perl5/lib/perl5/Finance/Quote/ * Edited ~/perl5/lib/perl5/Finance/Quote.pm to add USFedBonds to the Modules section around Line 180. The one thing I'll have to change is that up to now, I've been holding the EE

Re: Finance::Quote for EE Savings Bonds

Yeah, I've found that one of the philosophical differences in how to track these things seems to be that some accounting systems want you to put the bonds in as a share-per-USD relationship. And, since there is no actual universal "symbol" for EE or other bonds of the type, there are lots of

Re: Finance::Quote for EE Savings Bonds

Ken, You have obviously devoted a significant amount of time to the entire process needed to track EE bonds in GnuCash and I think that it would be nice to document your work in a way that other users could find it and benefit from it. I am not a developer nor do I know the best place in the

Re: Finance::Quote for EE Savings Bonds

Thanks for this information. Would it be possible to either add a note about how this is done to the appropriate section of the FAQ or to file a bug report to enhance the program to do this without editing Perl code? David C On Mon, Feb 19, 2018 at 7:57 PM, farleykj

Re: Date changes

Start by reading the Tutorial and the Help Manual. Once you have created a chart of accounts you just open the register for whichever account you want to enter a transaction into, type any date into the date box and go from there. David C On Mon, Feb 19, 2018 at 8:22 AM,

Re: Date changes

There is a setting that might prevent you from seeing older transactions once you've entered them. When you have a register open, use the View menu View > Filter by > Show all If it was set to a date range that excludes an old transaction date, it would be possible for a newly entered old

Language change mystery

I live in Mexico so when my tech works on my computer he changes the operating language of Windows to Spanish. Somehow that changed the language of GnuCash and I can't seem to get it to change back. The names of the accounts are the names I gave them in English but all the menus and tabs are in

Why I'm trying GnuCash

Being brand new to the list, I don't know whether it's customary to introduce oneself. But how I got here is perhaps a little unusual, and might be of interest to some of you. I started double-entry bookkeeping for my personal accounts on paper in the 1970s, using the accrual method not cash
