Are you, by chance, using the “Import transactions from CSV” capability to
update your accounts?
If so, you should be aware that sometimes the transaction matched is one that
has already been reconciled, so it appears that the transaction has been added
when, in fact, it has updated a previousl
It seems that if I have a couple of unsaved transactions, and then go to exit
Gnucash, I can get a crash.
If I have one or two transactions I have edited but not saved, and I do
Menu->File->Quit,
1. I get asked to save a transaction, so I click yes, then
2. I get asked to safe the file before cl
On Mac OS X 10.14.6, I’ve moved from Gnucash 2.6.21 to 3.7. All the data look
fine, BUT
I get lots of beachballs as I move from one screen to the next, or even scroll
within a register. Looking at the logs,
I get lots of Gnucash process messages along the lines of
"found no value for key NSPers
like the program has hung. Go get a cup of coffee or take
a bathroom break!

In situations like this, I have usually just moved the 10 or so transactions
from the current account(“AccountX”) to a new account (say AccountXNew), then
delete AccountX, then rename AccountXNew to AccountX.

I was in the same boat, and made the conversion, and would never go back.
There are a few steps to take to accomplish the migration, and to understand
the conceptual differences between the two programs.
However, it’s worth it once you get the process working for you.
If you have any questions,
You should be aware that the OFX import will use the posting date only as its
import date. Your statements will list the transaction date, so your statements
and your ledger will not match directly.
For that reason, I have gone back to using CSV import format, because the CSV
import tool allows
If you’re a day-trader, I can sympathize, put you would probably find the same
issues with other personal accounting programs.

options, and I track commission fees, reconcile the lots, adjust for partial
lot sales, an

When I want the actual Bank account updated, I just open each subaccount, edit
off the “:Income due” or “Payments due”, and the transaction is moved to the
parent account.

The way I handle this is to create a subaccount of my bank accounts labeled
“Bank1:ACH” for automated clearing house.
Then the transactions look like this (where Db means debit, Cr means credit,
and assuming credit card is paid $1000.00)
Bank1 is an account of type bank (an asset),
ACH is a subac
I am trying to deal with Return of Capital events happening over a series of
dates, therefore a series of lots.
For whatever reason, I am not able to adjust individual lot amounts.
Example:
Tx 0:January 1,2017
$1000 DR Stock:XYZ Corp 100 sh @ $10/shr
$1000 CR Cash
And in ACTION->View Lots
Under each account for which this can occur, I create a subaccount called “ACH”
for “Automated Clearing House,” so when the originating account registers the
transfer transaction, the target account’s subaccount “ACH” gets the
corresponding split. Then, when the receiving account registers the
I carry options as a stock. Just multiply the contracts by 100 to show shares
under options.
Regarding commissions, I have a subaccount under the brokerage account labeled
“Open Commissions”.
When I execute an opening transaction, then the commission is debited to “Open
Commissions”. I think of
valid date indication for
each transaction, and that’s what get used
I would love to have an option, by account, which would allow me to specify
which date entry takes precedence!

I run Gnucash on a Mac, but under VirtualBox with Ubuntu. That way, my data is
stashed on a virtual disk for security and it’s a cleaner environment.

As you know, options are quoted in “contracts” of 100 shares (a lot), but the
prices are quoted on a “per share” amount, I simply multiple the number of
contracts by 100 for the quantity of shares value and the quote for the price.
So, on an opening transaction of a “Buy to Open”, you credit the
19 matches
