 You've entered the date as the 21st.  Once that is properly sorted by
date, the transaction will move up several slots in the register to be just
after "from Linda for airport parking."  Once that re-sort takes place,
listed balance will make sense.

Wrong balance after entering transaction after import

2018-03-21 Thread BPleasantHill
Hi:

I am new to GnuCash and am converting from Quicken.

*Problem Summary*
I created a checking account, set a starting balance, and imported my
quicken QIF file. Then I adjusted the Opening Balance. Everything is OK.
Finally I entered a $60 payment. Instead of the balance going down by $60 it
went up by $1633.35. Why?

*Detailed steps*
1. Exported my checking account from Quicken in a QIF file.
2. Created a new account in GnuCash in Assets:Checking and set the Opening
balance to my 1/1/18 statement balance
3. Imported the quicken QIF file.
4. The final balance didn't match my check register so I changed the
starting balance. Then things matched.
5. Entered a new transaction with $60 in the Decrease column. The balance
went from 7303.47 to 8937.02. I was expecting a balance of 7273.47. I can't
figure out what is wrong.
6. Just as an experiment I entered another $100 transaction and the balance
went down my $100 as expected.
Seems like something is wrong someplace when entering new transactions after
importing.

Here is a picture:
 

Any idea why the balance is wrong? Thanks for your help.

Bob

Linux is not Unix.  Nor is BSD.  Very few users are interested either of
the other two, but they both are very important in the grand scheme of

Alex and I have had a discussion about this.

Currently, GnuCash uses Version 41 of the txf (tax exchange format) 
format.  The newest I have been able to locate is V42, which was last 
updated in November of 2011.  These codes are "supposedly" maintained by 
Intuit.  V42 does better represent some I.R.S. forms.  Unfortunately, 
numerous tax forms have changed since then and some new ones added.

Hopefully, Alex will have time to incorporate the V42 txf codes into the 
next stable release of GnuCash.

Personally, I hope there is a newer version of txf codes out there 
somewhere right now that more accurately reflects current tax forms and 
could be incorporated in future revisions of GnuCash.  I have continued 
to look without luck but; maybe some other user or developer, out there 
will have better luck locating a newer version of txf codes.

Either way, GnuCash, in it's current evolution has been a great time 
saver for me and I am grateful for all the effort the developers have 
put into making GnuCash the best accounting software available.

Re: Profit and Loss report

2018-03-21 Thread Adrien Monteleone
Not quite.

But you can achieve the result of both reports on the same ‘page’ using a 
custom multi-column report. (located in Reports > Sample & Custom)

Set one column to display the P for the month, the second column, for the P 
YTD.

Unfortunately, you’ll get duplicated account name columns with this method.

You can copy/paste or export the report to a spreadsheet and remove the extra 
account labels column if you prefer.

Adrien

I think that’s actually a list setting:



Changing the first will of course send your own message to you. The second will 
just confirm it was received by the mailing list software.

One could always check the archives though—e.g.,

It is a gmail issue. When one sends an email to the list from gmail

Re: Preferences - Online Banking

2018-03-21 Thread R Winstead
Good to know my message went through and I'll keep in mind for future posts.

Given the responses, it leads me to believe that most people leave the
default settings as is, and there aren't some basic manipulations that
improve the matching process - particularly around the threshold values for
"match display", "auto-add", and "auto-clear".  It would be completely
valid that the default settings are likely optimal.  For me, matching does
work, with manipulation during the import process.  I was just hoping to
find some improvement.

Thanks.

As you are not the first to ask about an unanswered message, I wonder whether 
there's something causing messages to disappear on their way back to users...

No it showed up a few days ago.  I can't help you though as I never import

Hi RW,

your original message made it to the list OK (well, I got a copy...)

I also think that you are well within the rules of ettiquette.

I haven't see a reply to the list, nor do I have anything to add as I don't 
import transactions.

HTH,
Maf.
