Re: [GNC] Sorry, first post: frequent imports always requiring intervention

[David Carlson]

Steve,

The fact that some transactions appear in red during the matching and
account assignment step of the import process tells you that GnuCash has no
idea what to do with those transactions.

Your job is to assign the correct accounts during the import and GnuCash
may do better next time.
It is my experience that some banks or credit cards just make poor choices
of words that make it much harder for GnuCash to learn.

I get a few of those red transactions even after many months of
experience.  I just make sure that they are not still red when I finally
accept the batch.

When I import transactions (using csv) about 10% do not import, i.e. show up
in red as requiring intervention. Some of these are repeated transactions,
e.g. Apple.Com/Bill $5.32.

Is there some way to teach GnuCash to accept these?

Thank you for any help.

Steve


Did you read
https://www.gnucash.org/docs/v5/C/gnucash-manual/trans-import.html ?
Keywords to watch: Bayesian

For its learning it is impportant, that the assignment is done in the 
import process, not later.

Re: [GNC] Frequent imports always requiring intervention

[David Cousens]

Adrien, 

Not quite. The importer matcher is trained by the material that is actually
imported and uses it to set up the probability tables the Bayesian matcher uses
to assign accounts. The setup is mainly for setting formats and making sure the
requisite data columns are assigned to the correct column headers internal to
GnuCash.

I have often wondered what would happen if you processed the complete data file
info for the appropriate accounts not just the imported stuff. It would likely
slow down the matching a bit with more data to check for not too much gain in
performance

Looks like a bloated signature that Steve should not use when posting to 
the list. (and who didn't start a new thread, twice now at that, mere

Re: [GNC] Frequent imports always requiring intervention

[David Cousens]

Steve

Likely not. It is mainly because of bad habits indulged in by the institutions
you deal with. My bank only supplies a common direct debit request authorityno
for two separate direct debit gym memberships rather than a unique transaction
number and the matcher is never able to separate them into the spearate expense
accounts -  their Bayesian scores are equal. You can try adjusting the
thresholds for matching in the import matcher to try and obtain better
performance.

[GNC] frequent imports always requiring intervention

[Steve Freeman]

When I import transactions (using csv) about 10% do not import, i.e. show up
in red as requiring intervention. Some of these are repeated transactions,
e.g. Apple.Com/Bill $5.32. is there some way to teach GnuCash to accept
these?

Thank you for any help.

Steve, you'd do better to start a new thread than reply to a different 
topic.


Simply send your message to the list address.

Otherwise, it might be buried and folks who can help might not see it.

As to your specific question, I don't use the importer, so I can't help 
with specific steps though I know what you are asking to be possible. If 
I recall correctly, it is during the import setup process that you do 
the training/assigning if the correct guess isn't made already. *Then* 
you proceed with the import.

Right. The build ID is supposed to be "5.4+". Sorry if that wasn't clear from 
the announcement. The new gnucash-5.4-1.setup.exe has it right, see the 
attached screenshot. As I said, if this doesn't bother you you needn't do 
anything.

Re: [GNC] Import saved-reports from 4.x

[Adrien Monteleone]

Roland,

You already have a thread posted on this, no need to repost to get an 
answer.


I saw your previous post, but didn't reply yet since I don't use the 
flatpak and was going to leave this for others who do.


However, I guess I can at least ask for clarification concerning:

"I don't see the custom reports when I open an invoice."

Where exactly are you expecting to see them when opening an invoice?

Custom Saved Reports are in Reports > Saved Report Configurations.

Are yours not there?

*note, the proper file name is:

saved-reports-2.8

NOT

saved_reports-2.8

(hyphen, not underscore)

I'm not sure if your post has a typo there or if your file is misnamed.

Regards,
Adrien

It is not one invoice, but so far, just the invoices from one Vendor.

Additionally, if I close all invoice tabs from that vendor, I can now 
resize left-to-right, but only using the title bar. The side of the 
window wants to drag the whole window and trying to resize at the bottom 
bar does not resize but does blank the entire window and then draws it 
in with a several second delay.


On a whim, I reset the custom Vendor Document Layout I was using, but 
that did not help.


After a restart of GnuCash, I was able to resize via the side of the 
window again, but only once.


Also, the delayed redraw doesn't even seem to start drawing at all until 
I mouse over either the toolbar or the tab bar. (which I have on the 
left side) Mousing over the main tab content area does not trigger the 
redraw.

Adrien

I usually keep several tabs open for some time, so I decided to start

bill from one particular vendor is causing the problem.


Now, to see if I can figure out what is unique about that bill...

[GNC] Import saved-reports from 4.x

[Roland Giesler via gnucash-user]

I eventually got around to installing a new Ubuntu 22.04 VM with 
flatpak, GNUCash 5.3 and postgres 14.


All is well, except that I can't figure out where to put my customised 
invoices file: saved_reports-2.8


According to /https://wiki.gnucash.org/wiki/Configuration_Locations/ it 
should be in either one of these:


/var/lib/flatpak/app/org.gnucash.GnuCash/current/active/files or

/var/lib/flatpak/app/org.gnucash.GnuCash/current/active/files/share/gnucash

However, I don't see the custom reports when I open an invoice.

Can anyone help with some details please?

regards

Roland

[GNC] GnuCash 5.4 Repackaged

[John Ralls]

An astute flatpak user noticed that the version reflected in the splash screen 
and About GnuCash window wasn't quite right, showing the release commit as a 
revision of 5.3 instead of plain 5.4. I tracked the problem back to the tarball 
generation, so I've made new tarballs, AIO bundles, and flatpak release with 
the following names and SHA256 hashes. Nothing functional is changed so if you 
don't care about the version string there's no need to download except that 
distro packagers will probably want to use the new tarballs to avoid confusing 
their users.

I don't see any resizing issues with 5.4. Late 2013 Mac Pro/macOS 12.6 and 2022 
M1 Mini/macOS 15 Developer beta from a month ago. The window shrinks to too 
small to be useful.

Does the resize cursor change from double headed to single headed when it 
declines to shrink any more?

Re: [GNC] Reconciliation of accounts is not permanent

Mark,

I posted my comment about suggested date too soon. I forgot it is a 
preference.

OK, that explains the difference in behaviour that I'm seeing to what 
you're seeing. I have Preferences > Register > Reconciling > 'Always 
reconcile to today' unchecked.

Is your System date correct?

When I do reconciliations, the default statement date is one calendar 
month after the previous statement date. Once it has aligned to the date 
of a statement, it continues using that date for me.


It works that way for statements like my bank statement, which is dated 
as the last day of the month and also for one of my credit card 
statements, where the statement date is near the middle of the month. 
Our statements are still snail-mailed, so when I do the reconciliation 
the statement date and the default statement date. However, if I start a 
reconciliation on one of those counts before the next due statement 
date, the suggested statement date is the current date.


All of that works very well for me.

And when I tested this last night on an account I know I haven't 
reconciled in over a year (yes, I'm behind in duties) it suggested 
yesterday's date, not something over a year old 


If I miss the reconciliation of a statement, when reconcile the first 
one, it offers the date of the missed statement, and once that's been 
reconciled, it offers the date of the next statement.


If I start a reconciliation on a register that has never been 
reconciled, then the statement date defaults to the current date.
