RE: beginning balance of income and expense accounts

2018-03-26 Thread DaveC49
Lori,

The Opening Balances account is an account of type equity. *It is always the
offset account for the opening balances of all other accounts.* 

Your procedure for starting to use Gnucash from the 30/9 is fine. The entry
for the opening balance for your income and expense accounts at 30/9 will be
something like:

   debit  credit
Income  
Equity:OpeningBalances

Expense   
Equity:Opening Balances

where  and  are the closing balances for income and expenses at 30/9
from your previous accounting program.  

More than likely thoug,h you will want to transfer the closing balances for
all the subaccounts of Income and Expense (and also Assets, Liabilities and
other Equity accounts you may have  at this date rather than just the Income
and Expense ( and other accounts) totals. In that case the entries labelled
Income and Expense would become e.g. Income:Sales  or Expenses:Wages and you
would create a similar entry for each subaccounts of each type of account. 

As someone mentioned earlier you can then run the Reports for Profit and
Loss and a Balance Sheet at 30/9 and these should match the similar reports
from your previous accounting system at that date. There is probably not
much point in entering the Jan-Sep data if you will still have access to the
other accounting system whenyou have to file your end of year financials.

If Microsoft Money has the ability to export data in QIF format (I'm not a
user of it) if you do want to import the Jan-Sep data it is possible to
import it into Gnucash. There is a FAQ on the Gnucash Wiki 
http://wiki.gnucash.org/wiki/FAQ#Q:_How_do_I_import_my_data_from_Microsoft_Money.3F

 
. (CSV import is also possible - my understanding is that the new improved
csv importer is in the current 2.7 beta release and will be standard in the
next 3.0 stable release. If you do want to  use CSV it would probably be
wise to wait for the v3.0 release before importing data.)  If you search the
archives for this list you will probably find some other references to
importing from MS Money. 

Your Opening balances would then be those at 31/12 of the previous year. You
would have to delete the entries at 30/9 and replace them with the
appropriate entries for 31/12 of the previous year. If you do decide to do
this it is generally better to import something like a month at a time and
reconciling the balances to your previous set of accounts as it simplifies
finding and correcting any import errors which might occur.  Good luck

Re: beginning balance of income and expense accounts

> [...] it is usual to start a set of books JUST from the balance sheet

This is what I was going to suggest -- very tentatively and with
many caveats that I'm not an accountant.  Since Mike (I believe)
is one, I feel on much firmer ground amplifying on what he said:

 1. Start with opening-balance entries for the Balance Sheet
accounts -- but as of the previous year end, *not* as of the
cutover date (9-30 in your case) -- and opening balances of
zero for the Income Statement accounts

This is what your GnuCash books would have looked like on Jan. 1
if you had cut over to it then.

 2. For each Income and Expense account, enter one rolled-up
summary transaction.  Its date should be the cutover date,
and its amount should be the account's balance as of that
date.  All of these should be against some Asset account (see
below)

At this point, the Income and Expense balances will be correct as
of the cutover date, but the Assets and Liabilities will be
wildly out of whack, because your summary entries won't have even
tried to reflect whether, for example, that widget you bought at
Office Depot on July 15 came out of Petty Cash, from the Bank
account (via debit card), or from a Liability account (via credit
card).  So now:

 3. Make adjusting entries to move money among the Asset
and Liability accounts to bring them into agreement with
reality

If I were doing it, I'd probably create a dummy asset account
specifically for this purpose, to make clear that it doesn't
correspond to any real-world store of value.  In particular:
  - the dummy account would start step (2) with a balance of zero
(no opening balance, and no txn's yet)
  
  - after step (3), its balance should automagically end up back
at zero because everything just works out -- if that doesn't
happen, go back and look for errors

  - In between those points, the dummy account's balance doesn't
signify anything, so if it goes negative, no big deal

My non-accountant-ness means that I can only guess at how Equity
figures into all this.  Rather than do so -- possibly very
wrongly -- I'll leave that piece for someone else to please fill
in.

I also don't know whether the dummy-asset-account idea would
remotely pass muster among real accountants.

Re: Gnucash and 529 plans

Presumably you have a GNC account for the 529 plan already,
reflecting its balance, earnings, etc.  Here's an approach that,
while requiring more transactions, seems to me to reflect what's
actually happening.

>Ideally, when I pay for tuition, for example,
> 1. The funds go out of my checking account into the university

At this point, the 529 plan owes you money, even though they
don't know it yet.  So enter two transactions:

  - the obvious one: debit tuition expense, credit your bank
account

  - but also: debit an "owed by 529 plan" asset account for
yourself, and an "owing to Steve" liability account for your
plan (I want to say "A/R" and "A/P" respectively, but in
GnuCash those specific account types are reserved for the
business functions, so one has to steer clear of them)

> 2. I need to make a disbursement request from my 529 plan

Make the request for the current balance of your "owed by 529
plan" asset account.

> 3. The disbursement gets deposited into my bank account.

Again, two transactions:
  - debit bank, credit 529-plan assets
  - debit 529-plan "owing", credit your "owed by plan"

Variations on the above for cases where you request the plan to
pay some expense directly -- which is why the disbursement
request is *not* for the current balance of the "owed by plan"
liability account.

It is easy when you know how. Solving it was selecting both the bill and
pre-payment together which then made the money boxes below £0.

Re: Amend a Typo in Description of Bill

2018-03-26 Thread Adrien Monteleone
If the bill is paid, it won’t show up in the reminder box.

You also don’t need to pay from the reminder box. That is just a convenience.

Do a search for the bill as I noted, does it show as paid? (is the Paid? column 
checkbox checked or not?)

Open a process-payment window and pull up the vendor. Does the invoice still 
show with a balance?

If it shows as paid, and does not show in the process payment window with a 
remaining balance, then there should not be any problems in the future as new 
bills for that vendor come due.

If it does still show as unpaid, and still shows some balance (or the whole 
balance) in the process payment window, then that needs to be fixed. Let me 
know and I can help walk you through it.

Regards,
Adrien

Re: GnuCash 2.7.8 Released

2018-03-26 Thread Stan Brown
Hi, David.

I'm assuming I can install the new release in a different folder. My question 
was whether the install would mess up anything less obvious. The answer seems 
to be yes, but in preferences and data files rather than in program files..

So I guess I'll have to create a virtual machine to install 2.7.8 on, just so 
that I can test whether the bug I reported in 2.6.19 exists in 2.7.8, as I was 
asked.  It will be a couple of hours to set up, and about 60 seconds to test.  
Sigh!

I suspect it's not "can't" but "won't". In any case, arguing would be useless.

I can sort of understand her not wanting to learn a new program just a couple 
of weeks before the filing deadline. And I'm not sure you can predict 
everything she'd need so that you can create all necessary reports in advance.

Maybe you could offer to sit with her and produce any supplements she might 
need on the spot, if the reports you've pre-created don't include everything 
she needs?

Unpost and repost went fine. Then a bill payment reminder came up - process
payment - I could see pre-repayment when I did that it gave a refund back
into bank. 

So it did not auto reconnect with payment. Perhaps I should have ignored the
Bill Reminder. Please can you explain in more details: assign it manually

Dealing with a bookkeeper and GNU

2018-03-26 Thread Martijn Heuts
Hello, I am in a very fustrating situation
I used GNU cash in 2017 and my bookkeeper states she can't use anything of GNU.

So the first question would be, is it correct that even I have good reports 
from GNU, she couldn't use any of it to file my taxes? -she uses QuickBooks-.
It's just that I don't understand why she can't use any of my GNU cash 
reports/numbers¿?

Seems like if I would do the taxes myself (say via TurboTax) I just enter the  
numbers from my GNU report into TurboTax, or am I wrong?

I have to say that our tax situation is a bit more complicated than that 
because I just purchased the business in March 2017 via a stock sale, meaning 
tax ID stayed the same, so the bookkeeper wants previous owner numbers and my 
numbers together in her QuickBooks.

I used the GNU to QBF converter which successfully converted everything to GNU 
besides any invoice payments or income. (QuickBooks gave an error message that 
it needs a bank account to apply checks, or something similar like that).  
It's going to take forever and a day for me to apply every single 
payment/deposit manually. 

If anyone has any suggestions or comments I really appreciate it.
The bookkeeper is highly qualified and recommend in the area by many business 
and has the best "Audit" score.

Thanks so much I appreciate any of your comments/feedback.

I guess I should have added, I’ve unposted and reposted invoices more times 
than I can count and all without any major issue.

When you unposted, made the edit and then reposted, what was the result to make 
you think something wasn’t correct?

Adrien

Hi Keith,

what gave you the idea that GC wasn't happy?I have unposted, tweaked 
wording or income sub-account and reposted several times.  Indeed, I did it 
last week.

I only didn't reply to your OP because Adrien's reply was exactly what I would

Re: Budgets: showing total-to-date in budget period, and previous month totals only

2018-03-26 Thread Phil Longstaff
I have attached a report which does this.

I have attached ytd-budget.scm. I have this file in
c:\Users\phill\.gnucash\reports. I then add this line to
c:\Users\phill\.gnucash\config.user:

(load "c:\\Users\\phill\\.gnucash\\reports\\ytd-budget.scm")

This gives me a new "YTD budget" with 3 sets of columns:
1) selected month
2) year-to-date
3) full year

It always shows actual and budget amounts, and there is an option to add
difference. There is also an option to select which month you want to show.

Yes.  The blue line separate past transactions from future transactions.  It

Hi Anita,

Do you mean the eguile Balance Sheet?

Not sure - my accounts list in alphabetic order on that report - do you 
perhaps have account codes that are being picked up but not shown?

How to show the accounts in alphabetic sequence on the eguile

2018-03-26 Thread Anita Graves
Dear Gnucash folks,

I would very much appreciate help to know why the eguile report does not list 
my sub-accounts in alphabetical order under each parent account.

For example, I have the checking account with sub-accounts 

debit card
earmarked International Fund
earmarked National Fund
earmarked Temples Fund
etc.

But in the eguile report they are listed out of alphabetical order:

earmarked International Fund
earmarket National Fund
debit card
earmarked Temples Fund
etc.

Is there any way to fix this or sort these sub-accounts so that they would be 
alphabetical under the parents?

Thanks very much.  Otherwise I am quite satisfied with everything.

Anita

Fwd: What is the blue line all about?

2018-03-26 Thread Anita Graves
Today I entered a transaction that is clearly within the dates set for the 
start of our fiscal year and the end of our fiscal year.

These dates are:  Start:  28.03.2017  and End:  01.04.2018

However, a blue line is drawn across the checking account above my entry of 
26.03.2018 and below an entry dated 23.03.2018.

I have entered the date twice thinking I have made some kind of error, but no 
matter what I do, this blue line is there and it is not supposed to be.

Any help is greatly appreciated!

Many thanks to you all - I LOVE Gnucash!

Estimating budget not working

2018-03-26 Thread Peter Barnshaw
Hi,

I am a long-time user of GnuCash and have a question regarding budgeting. I
am on GnuCash 2.6.17.

When I try estimate the budget, it comes up with 0 as the budget number
despite there being over 18 months of data in my accounts. Why is this the
case and can I get the estimate to work rather than manually having to type
in the previous year's spend in a particular month.

Many thanks in advance,

Peter

finance::quote does not produce results

2018-03-26 Thread Henrik tom Wörden
Hi,

I had gnucash working with finance quote, but for quite some time now it
does not work anymore. I tried to figure out what the problem is, but I
could not find it so far.

In the following I will show you the output that some commands produce.

>> echo '(yahoo "IBM" "LNUX") ' | gnc-fq-helper
#f

I also attached a dummy program. When called with perl dummy4.pl it
should print what fetch returns. However, there is no output.

Does anyone have a hint for me, how I might get to the source of the
problem?

Thanks in advance.

Henrik
