Hello,
Long time user; MacOS Mojave, GnuCash 3.4. I have a saved report I use around
this time of year (I call it “W-2 - David”) that shows me the total amounts
assigned to a subset of my expense accounts (i.e., my tax expense accounts).
The purpose of this report is to allow me to compare my

Norman,
While the “FinanceQuote Update” module might not have been changed since 2010,
*Finance Quote* (which actually performs quote retrieval for GnuCash) most
certainly has been updated numerous times since then. If you *run*
“FinanceQuote Update,” it will … update Finance Quote for you.
Norman,
Glad to help. In the future, be sure to “Reply All” so that your message gets

Thank you for your response, Frank.
When I look at the “Default” stylesheet, Arial is the default font. When I look
at the Character Viewer on my Mac, I can see that the INR (rupee) symbol is
available, though I couldn’t figure out what font that is.
This was not a problem until 3.3, so I am

Thank you for the lead.
It turns out that I can get almost exactly the same result using the hide

difference is that the Account name is not presented before the total line. I
consider that to be an

I do note one issue with the new transaction report: it doesn’t seem to utilize

Geert and others,
I would like to follow up on the issues I raised earlier.
First off, the crashing upon saving the report has gone away. I have no idea
why.
As for the saved-reports truncation issue, after a break from all of this, I
returned to do some tinkering around. Repeated efforts to
Back to the original problem,
I would suspect maybe a viewing filter is at play? That *could* explain why
some transactions aren’t visible.
The read-only problem *could* be a permissions issue on the file itself. If
register transactions are the only thing that is ‘read-only’ then I’d say that
I am running GnuCash 3.4 on Windows 10. I have the same issue on GnuCash

For what its worth, I updated to Gnucash 3.4 on both a Debian 9 machine and a
Windows 7 machine, and both fail to apply the Tax Reporting Options.
Either this is a bug, or I am doing something wrong on both machines!

Have you tried examining the file with ofxdump? If you are on Linux, it can
be installed with "sudo apt install ofx". Not sure about how to get it for

about an ofx response file including error messages. It tests

I’ve seen that very strange issue happen on two other occasions, once with a

Adrien,
It's not merely a case of the OS reporting the wrong file size; the file was in
fact truncated. Reports were gone.
It's more likely that something in the particular report was causing Gnucash to
discard the data before saving. I say this because Gnucash consistently put the

Chris,
While I understand and respect the goal of backward compatibility, I'll point
out that your changes to this report have already broken backward
compatibility, as evidenced by my original example. Settings which worked
previously yield meaningless results now, and I have had to go

Sorry for the misunderstanding.

This is by design.
Previously a transaction report including *all* accounts for a specified
period would erroneously add the sign-reversed amounts as displayed, which
would lead to the grand total being a nonsensical number. Eg income
$100 expense
$50. Amounts:
Bank $100 -$50
Income $100
Expense
This sounds like bug #796687, which had been discussed on gnucash-devel
recently.

It seems the Balance sheet honors the setting, but using the ’None’ option in
Preferences produces a disconcerting result.
With the option set to Credit Accounts, all amounts (normally balanced) are
positive.
With the option set to None, the Liability and Equity line items are negative,

It sounds like the fix has been found. Hopefully it gets rolled into a release
soon.
Thanks again to all the contributors,

The OFX 2.1.1 standard limits elements to a maximum of 255 alphanumeric
characters. Today’s principles are different from those of a couple (or more)
decades ago when these standards were started and both memory and storage were
orders of magnitude more expensive than they are now.

Then why include the option? It no longer does anything, except imply to the
user that they have control over something they Nik longer can control.

Thanks for the offer, but readers of these lists over the years can vouch for
my utter inability to contribute meaningfully to any code. That's why I've
tried to contribute to the documentation (although to be truthful, even that is
a stretch).
I apologize for suggesting tasks for you
It's fine to make recommendations. During the transaction upgrade I
remembered some wishlist items and was able to implement them.
The limitations for reversing subtotals stem from the fact that subtotal &
grouping is not limited to account types, but can also be organised by date
and other keys.

Sadly, the gnucash project has a long history of never removing features.
The amount sign reversal is still functional for the transactional amounts.
Only the subtotals are unaffected.

Hi Kevin,
If it is the post I think that was about a problem importing data in OFX format
and it was debugging of the file format
of the data being imported. Gnucash like all programs always has some bugs.
These are sometimes introduced through its
dependency on standard library functions to
David
Agreed. The OFX format should in principle have no limitation on a string
length as it should be anything between
opening and closing tags, but there may be on importation in GnuCash. Not
familiar enough with the OFX importer to be
sure whether it imposes any restrictions or not at this

I think that I need to spend more time examining the transactions that had
their memos dropped during import to see if I can find a threshold string
length, then file a bug report asking for a short term fix truncating
strings rather than dropping them, and a long term fix accepting up to the

Also, thank you too, Jean-David Beyer and Adrien Monteleone.
I will seek for professional advice regarding this.

Not sure if this will help your particular issue but I have not experienced
any issues with QIF files when moving from GnuCash v2 to v3.
I am, however, using MoneyManagerEx for Android to export .qif files and
that has not changed in the meantime.
You should be able to open the generated .qif
