When you say "no offsets", I'm not fully clear... do you mean no

If you mean "4.900" there already is.  Be careful though as it's a

Win 10 so wouldn't recommend it just yet :-)

[GNC] Credit Card Accounts Missing

[Les]

Hey All:

This morning, I had a new credit card statement and was going to 
reconcile. However, when I went to the the Liabilities account, there 
were no credit card accounts listed. Bizarre.  The display was only 
Liabilities: Auto Loan.


I am a long time user of GC and have never encountered this before 
today.  I am using GC the latest version from Flatpak on Linux Mint 19.3.


Thanks for any help.

I just tried gnc-fq-dump again for several currencies and it worked, 
now it just hangs, even for currencies I just tried.


Probably an issue on the price-source end.

Re: [GNC] Gnucash via Flatpak-Issues-Solutions

[Les]

Hi David: thanks for the reply.  GC via Flatpac is the only issue I 
have.  Since some of the problems occurred during upgrades.


As far as upgrading Linux MInt: I did upgrade to a 20:1 awhile back, but 
it broke some of my other apps.  So I went back to 19.3.


As an experiment, I have another laptop with LM 19.3.  I installed the 
latest GC via Flatpac and DID NOT have any of the issues that I have 
experienced on this machine.  Weird to say the least.

Re: [GNC] New flatpak version 4.7+ crashes in my Ubuntu 20.04 - any help?

I have been using the Flatpak 4.7 on Linux Mint 19.3 for some time 
without problem.  But this morning it will not open, even if I click on 
the current file name.  It begins to open and then crashes.  I have 
tried this on 2 different Laptops running the same os. and both crash. 
Does this have to do with the new version of GC?

I’ve tried both options for the Mac included in Alan’s email, but
neither
works:

Apple macOS:

https://github.com/Gnucash/gnucash/releases/download/4.3/Gnucash-Inte
l-4.4-1.dmg

https://downloads.sourceforge.net/gnucash/gnucash%20%28stable%29/4.4/
Gnucash-Intel-4.4-1.dmg

The former results in a 404 error, the later gives me an error
message about 4.4.1 and offers me 4.3.1 instead

No rush to fix, but thought I should flag this up.

Hoping 2021 turns out better than its predecessor for all in the GC
community,

Re: [GNC] Sales Taxes...

Additional thoughts:  If you are paying sales taxes on items for resale 
(assuming you cannot purchase without sales taxes) then the sales taxes 
become part of cost of goods sold.

Re: [GNC] Sales Taxes...

[Les]

I am not an account so..  However, if you are purchasing items for 
resale in Texas, you can obtain a resale certificate from the local 
county, which allows you to purchase these items without paying sales 
taxes.  You do not state the type of organization you are using for your 
business, but it you have formalized it, the certificate is available.


So time ago, I owned vending machines and filed a "d.b.a." in the county 
I lived in at the time and obtained my supplies without paying sales 
taxes. I then included the "retail sales taxes"in my records.


I do not know if this is still available.

Thanks for the information, but upon a comparison of both Laptops, there

I too thought of the Insert mode toggle but that usually isn't

toggle it by accident) You may have a key-combo which toggles this on 
and off, check your keyboard preferences.

It is most likely to be a premissions issue with Flatpak. I'm not familiar
enough with that to make any suggestions. If the keyboard is acting normally
in other apps it is highly likely to be in that area. You can check what the
computer is getting from the keyboard using xev in a terminal. I think John
Ralls has chased down such issues before but he should be asleep for the
next 5-6 hours.

Re: [GNC] Annoying Register Issue

Thanks for the reply Tommy.

I have used the Flatpak version of GC since at least 4.0 on the same 
system.  This is the first experience of the issue described.  I often 
issue the flatpak update and nothing has updated since GC 4.2.


I am running this on a Lenova w541 and just checked the insert key, but 
to no effect.  However, there is a "Windows" key and that did remove an 
entry.  ???


For what its worth, I have two of these laptops, both running the same 
version of Linux Mint and I just installed GC 4.2 via Flatpak on the 2nd 
one and I don't have this problem problem.  Weird.

Hi -- has this issue resolved for you? I am using GnuCash 4.2 via 
Flatpak on a couple of different releases of Ubuntu (20.04 and 20.10) 
and neither shows this behavior.


I wondered if somehow you had turned on "Insert Mode" on your keyboard 
(pressing the Insert key) but at least on this keyboard it didn't 
cause the behavior you described.


I know little about flatpak but maybe try opening a terminal and 
issuing the command

flatpak update

Maybe if there's a flatpak configuration issue it will tell you.

Oh and just to be certain -- I assume you have used other GnuCash 
releases and have not seen this behavior before. If you are a new 
GnuCash user and do not have much experience deleting and editing 
transactions, you should know you cannot select the entire transaction 
and delete it using the delete key on your keyboard. You can use 
Transaction --> Delete Transaction menu item to delete an entire 
transaction.

Re: [GNC] Price Quotes

[Les]

An update:  I discovered that Flatpak has upgraded GC to the 4.0 
version.  I assume this is the issue.


Would someone point me to the instructions for installing AlphaVantage 
on Linux Mint?


Thanks,

Les

So, what has changed since yesterday?

Although I have an AlphaVantage API, I haven't used it for a long 
time.  I think it was when the API was limiting the number of prices.


Any assistance with this issue would be greatly appreciated.

Re: [GNC] Price of gold

Eric:

There are 480 grains per troy oz.

So you can convert your Sovereigns using the above

OK. Now that I understand where GnuCash's gold price comes from I've 
come to the conclusion that what I called the "retail price" of gold

My gold is in the form of Sovereigns (each of about 7.5gms) and I 
guess that the only reliable way to get a value of it is by offering 
it for sale.


But I now know more than I did when I woke up this morning which can't 
be bad. Thank you

A note for Long:
It was your question about realised and unrealised losses that got me 
thinking (you used "gold" as an asset). I think, unless you actually 
have real gold, this thread is best ignored - except as an 
intellectual exercise. I do hold gold (in modest quantities) and 
that's how I'm thinking of this thread.

Re: [GNC] Price of gold

[Les]

I use Kitco.com/markets for my prices of precious metals.  It is as 
accurate as one can get.  (The real value of an ounce of gold or silver 
is currently controlled by the paper markets.  And of course it is 
priced in USD.  It would be more accurate to price USD in grams of gold. 
But that will probably never happen in my lifetime.

Check your tracefile before restarting GnuCash and/or run from the command

Re: [GNC] GC 2.6.19 & GC 3.8

[Les]

Today, when I went to price database to download some closing amounts, 
the application hung up and I to force close GC (3.8).  I tried a second 
time with the same result.  This is a first for this version of GC.  It 
used to happen often on the 2.6.19 version.


I do not know what caused it today; it has been perfect since I 
installed it (about a week ago. It would be great if you could just kill 
the price database without also killing GC.

Les

Is this a known bug?


I have noticed this, too; I believe it's a screen refresh issue.
I'm trying to replicate it on Ubuntu 19.10 and cannot, so I think
it's an issue with a build based upon Ubuntu 18.04 LTS (which your
Mint probably is). That's the version I use in my office.

Here's what I have noticed -- I click on a transaction and choose
Delete from the toolbar. A confirmation dialog pops up, and I
agree that I want to delete, but the transaction does not
disappear from the register. HOWEVER if I close and reopen the
register, (or maybe if I choose View --> Refresh ?) the
transaction is gone.

I have noticed a few other display issues with GnuCash built for
Ubuntu 18.04. The register colors are strange around the text,
especially noticeably on the date field.


I feel compelled to update this a little bit -- As I said before, I 
think things look different on my system now that I've installed 
dconf-editor on my Ubuntu 18.04 LTS "Bionic" system. I installed it so 
I could have a look at the GTK+ inspector and its CSS features. I 
haven't adjusted any CSS, but the application installation seems to 
have brought in a few other packages, too.


Here's more about using the inspector:
https://blog.gtk.org/2017/04/05/the-gtk-inspector/

After installing dconf-editor, I have not been able to replicate the 
deleted transaction refresh issue. Though maybe I just I haven't yet 
hit the exact sequence that triggers it. You might try installing 
dconf-editor and see if it improves it for you, too. I believe having 
it should otherwise be benign.


ONE ADDITIONAL strange thing, however...

Sometimes I want to enter data from my laptop into a GnuCash file 
that's on my office computer, so I open GnuCash using ssh:


$ ssh -X user@host gnucash /path/to/datafile.gnucash

I was surprised to see the GnuCash windows on my laptop (running 
Ubuntu 19.10) look good, even though the application is running from 
the desktop system (running Ubuntu 18.04). I naively expected it to 
have the same display issue around highlighted text. (Specifically: 
when text is being edited, the text is surrounded by a rounded 
rectangle with a thin border and a white background.)


SO I just spent (entirely too many) minutes testing some scenarios...

At this moment I am preparing a new CPU for my office running Ubuntu 
18.04, so I decided to try the same task connecting from a newly 
installed Ubuntu 18.04 client to the old Ubuntu 18.04 host.


Ubuntu 18.04 client, ordinary Ubuntu desktop: I found that the strange 
coloration around highlighted fields is still present when the client 
is an "ordinary" Ubuntu 18.04 desktop.


Ubuntu 18.04 client, running Wayland: The coloration has the same 
problem as regular Ubuntu. (However the SSH windows are quite sluggish.)


Ubuntu 18.04 client, MATE desktop: The coloration around highlighted 
text looks much better.


I just went back to the old desktop and opened the gnome-tweaks tool 
and played with some themes... the default Ubuntu application theme is 
"Ambiance," and I see the text edit problem with both Ambiance AND 
Radiance, but the text looks more consistent when some of the other 
themes. So there MIGHT be a weird Gnome theme issue with GnuCash built 
under Ubuntu 18.04. As I suggested, the default theme in Ubuntu MATE 
seems to work better.


I think I've tinkered enough with this for now. Maybe someone who 
understands Gnome themes better will suggest something easier to 
implement.


P.S.: The next Ubuntu LTS release is scheduled for April, so the 
updated libraries should filter to distros like Mint by this summer 
sometime.

Unfortunately I also noticed that the spacing of items on the register 
changed slightly when I installed the GTK Inspector (as was discussed 
on this list a few days ago in reference to CSS issues). I say 
"unfortunately" because I believe it was the act of installing the 
libraries and other components of the development tools that subtly 
changed the way the application appears, which I presume might make it 
harder to fix.


I glanced through the bug reports in bugzilla and didn't see one but 
maybe I missed it.

You will need to maintain separate data files(e.g. give them separate names
identifying the version they run with) for each version as there were some
data file changes going from 2.6.x to 3.x which prevent a 3.x file working
with a 2.6.x version. I think Geert mentioned them in a post in the last
week or so.

Both versions will also store their configuration files in different
locations in your home directory see
https://wiki.gnucash.org/wiki/Configuration_Locations. This is possibly a
bonus but changes to things like saved reports in one won't of course carry
through to the other.

You should be able to run instances of both at the same time if you want to.
Just label the launchers in your menu system clearly with the version number
as well.

Re: [GNC] GC 2.6.19 & GC 3.8

Thanks David.

I made a different account file for the 3.8 version naming it 3.8.  I 
kept the original account file with the same description.


My goal is to run both, one at a time, for about a week to verify the 
totals for each major account remain the same.  Assuming that there are 
no major problems, I will stop using the 2.6 version.

Re: [GNC] GC 2.6.19 & GC 3.8

[Les]

Hi Colin:

Thanks for your input.

It appears that they do indeed update together.

Hi all:

I had a merger transaction on one of my Canadian stocks where my existing 
holding was acquired on a 33 for 20 basis (new for old). From 500 of the 
existing shares for 825 shares of the new.  I also had a net gain in cash of 
C$16.75.

I am uncertain on how to handle this transaction in GC.

I would greatly appreciate any suggestions.

Actions>Stock Split Add 325 shares and book a "cash in lieu" for the 
C$16.75.

Les,

What I do in that case is modify the transaction after running the Stock Split 
Assistant to credit the old stock account 500 shares and change the 325 debit 
to 825 in the new stock account. You could of course create the same 
transaction manually:

Old Stock   -500
New Stock   825
Cash Account 16.75
Cap Gains Income  16.75

Start it in the Old Stock account and be sure that the price column is blank in 
all 4 splits.

Note that this treatment depends on the merger not being taxable to the shareholders. That's true 
in nearly all cases, but a prominent one in the works now that isn't is United Technology's merger 
with Raytheon. If it's a taxable merger you need to record a regular sell of the 500 shares of 
"old stock" and a buy of the 800 shares of "new stock". The C$16.75 gets tacked 
on to the sell transaction. You should have gotten a letter from the company indicating the price 
to use for each transaction. If you didn't you can use the closing price of each on the last 
trading day before the merger consummated. (Note that I'm not a licensed accountant, financial 
advisor, or tax advisor and that you should consult with licensed professionals to be sure that 
what I've suggested complies with tax law in your jurisdiction.)

John Ralls

Re: [GNC] Options Trading

[Les]

Hi Alton:

Thanks a lot for your suggestions.  I will incorporate them in my 
options trades.


Les

On 6/11/19 7:45 AM, Alton Brantley wrote:
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 total 
price, and debit the commission  to a subaccount named “Open 
Commissions”  and debit the quantity and price (=cost) to the option 
account.
On the closing transaction (“Sell  to Close”), you debit the 
commission and credit the option account.
Then, do an Action->View Lots in the option account and match up the 
options, which will give you a “Realized Gain/Loss” in the option 
account. The realized gain/loss transaction is edited to add credit 
splits for the opening and closing commissions to give you your next 
transaction gain/loss(to match your brokerage statement).


On a short transaction (Sell to Open), the credit and debits are 
reversed for the cash account and the option account, but the 
commissions are still debited on the open and close, and credited on 
the Realized gain/loss reconciliation.


Hope this helps.

[GNC] Investment Accounts not Displaying Decimals

[Les]

I have two investment accounts that are not displaying decimals, but 
fractions.  All other investment accounts are displaying decimals 
(except foreign accounts).  How to fix this please?  This occurred after 
upgrading Linux Mint from 18.2 to 19.1 and GC from 2.6.17 to 2.6.21.

[GNC] AlphaVantage

[Les]

Over the weekend, I upgraded Linux Mint from 18.2 to 19.1.  With the 
upgrade, GC upgraded from 2.6.17 to 2.6.21.


After updating prices, I no longer was obtaining any quotes for 
currencies.  If I remember correctly, currencies are being served by 
AlphaVantage.  I guess that the configuration of AlphaVantage did not 
follow the upgrade.


Questions:  Does GC 2.6.21 have a location in the Preferences or is that 
only for the 3.0 version?


If I need to configure AlphaVantage manually, can someone point me to 
the instructions for this?


Thanks,

Les

Re: [GNC] *.deb package for GnuCash 3.4 Released

Thanks, I will check that out.  Not sure that Linux Mint 19.1 is out 
yet, but 19.0 is

A little research shows that Linux Mint is based on Ubuntu with these
relationships (loosely to debian):

Mint <- Ubuntu <- Debian

19.1 Tessa <- 18.04 Bionic <- 10 buster

19 Tara <- 18.04 Bionic <- 10 buster

18.3 Sylvia <- 16.04 Xenial <- 9 stretch

18.2 Sonya <- 16.04 Xenial  <- 9 stretch

18.1 Serena <- 16.04 Xenial <- 9 stretch

17.3 Rosa <- 14.04 Trusty <- 8 jessie

17.2 Rafaela <- 14.04 Trusty <- 8 jessie

17.1 Rebecca <- 14.04 Trusty <- 8 jessie

17 Qiana <- 14.04 Trusty <- 8 jessie


So, I'd say you need to be on Tara or Tessa to have any hope.  You might
need to look at the Ubuntu dependencies and see if you need newer ones
on Mint.

Thanks to both Steve and Colin for replies.

I think I will try the .deb on my test system before installing on my 
production machine.


I will provide feedback for both cases.

There shouldn't be any danger trying it, though obviously backup your
data files first.  I uninstalled the standard version, ran apt-get
autoremove, then downloaded the deb and installed it.  You can always
remove it again and install the repository version again if there are
problems.  If the install fails or it complains about missing packages
or such like come back and ask.  If it says it is going to remove
packages when you try to install the deb then ask first.

The following fixes and improvements were not associated with bug

• Set up filepath utils to determine the GNC_CONFIG_HOME in the 
same way as GNC_DATA_HOME.
Until now GNC_CONFIG_HOME was more or less hard-coded. Now it can be 
set via environment variable GNC_CONFIG_HOME. In addition it will 
automatically be created to avoid potential user confusion.

• Redesign gnc-uri-utils
    • gnc_uri_get_components will now return NULL as protocol if 
the input is a normal file system path instead of a uri (it used to 
return 'file')
    • gnc_uri_get_protocol will now return NULL if the input is a 
normal file sys

the registers, or that the reports do not work?


These would have different solutions.

Re: [GNC] Ubuntu PPA

[Les]

In my case, I installed Linux Mint 19 on an older Dell laptop, and 
installed the ppa version 3.3.1 on it.


All appeared to be goodc except there ware no totals on multiple 
accounts: (Investments, various stock account, etc.) which all were 
populated on GC 2.6.17.  Not sure what the problem is but it certainly 
does not work for me.


Regards,

Les

When will 3.3 come to ppa:sicklylife? Building from
the download doesn't work for me using the directions.

I wasn't aware of that repository. Good find. Usually
you have to wait a week or two (or longer!) for a
repository to get around to publishing an upgrade, as
these repos are generally run by hobbyists.

Re: [GNC] Currency CAD

[Les]

Thanks for the information Frank.  However, I was obtaining CAD quotes 
up until about a week ago.  Nothing has changed on my system and I have 
had FQ 1.47 since at least the beginning of the year.


I also get quotes for HKD and AUD currently.

Other than building the latest GC from source, there is no way to obtain 
later releases of GC.  I have had high hopes for Snap and Flatpak, but 
neither connect with FQ.

[GNC] Downloading Ciurrency Prices

Hoping someone can help.  I am using GC 2.6.17 on Linux Mint 18.2.  Up 
till 20180904, I was getting quotes for AUD, CAD, HKD and USD.  
Beginning 20180904, I am no longer obtaining quotes for AUD and CAD.  (I 
only have the above quotes set in Security Editor due to Alphavantage's 
limit of 4.


Sometime back, it was recommended to switch to Yahoo as Json. That

currencies. :-(

Re: [GNC] Not Getting Complete Stock Quotes with Price Database Tool

I am using LInux Mint 18.2 and GC 2.6.17.

Since someone a while back that switching to Yahoo as json most of my 
stock quotes have been up-to-date.  My only problem is being unable to 
retrieve quotes for the 8 currencies (I think the last update I received 
was in late July).  If memory serves, the last update to F::Q (1.47) all 
currencies look   to Alpha Vantage for quotes.

Dan,

You are not alone with this problem; numerous users have lamented the ongoing 
saga of retrieving commodity prices online since Yahoo! decided to pull the 
plug on its quote system. AlphaVantage has been the solution that everyone here 
flocked to, and now AlphaVantage is altering its enforcement. [I will note that 
my solution to this has been to accept that GnuCash will not provide me a daily 
balance on my investment accounts, and leave it at that.]

Having run into F::Q problems twice in a short period of time, it seems to me 
that this problem is likely to rear its head repeatedly, insofar as when a glut 
of users suddenly puts the hit on a free server, the increased demand forces 
the provider to throttle access in some way to maintain its viability.

Your idea is an interesting one, but I would actually broaden the RFE to ask 
that Finance::Quote have some mechanism that would allow more principled list 
tactics, such as:
* limiting requests submitted at a given time
* retrying entries “n” times before returning an error
* starting retrieval of prices with the oldest commodities in the file

This last would allow a user to maintain price updates for a file with a large 
number of commodities.

Adding this sort of configuration to F::Q might reduce the likelihood that 
GnuCash users slam the next online quote source and cause them to lock down.

Thanks for your reply, derek. Alpha Vantage wants $19.95 a month for a
premium API number that would solve the problem, but if I only wants
updates once or so a week, it's not worth it. Maybe GnuCash could
provide a check box indicator in the Price Tool where I could limit my
API calls to 5 at a time. Maybe Alpha Vantage could offer a different
limiting method for casual users like me and others who are just trying
to keep their personal finances in order. Forgive my rambling on. Thanks.

only that is there are modules associated with the flatpak system which
perhaps interface with the OS that may be missing. I had problems
seeing USB sticks and network shares form the flatpak, but these have
disappeared with a native build on LM19. I'd stick with your own build
and forget the flatpak at least for the moment. I can't see any
optional modules in the LM19 Software manager but I found a few
references on other forums to having to load additional support for
some interactions with the OS. I hear snap is a better system but have
no experience with it. there is a version on the snapcraft site. Might

It is possible it has been compiled or is missing libdbi which

David,

I see MySQL as an option in Save As so I assumed that meant that it
had been compiled with libdbi enabled.  I am able to save to mysql
using a self-compiled 3.2 version of GnuCash so that suggests to me
that the run time system dependencies are there.  Can you suggest
what the problem might be?  As you say it is a pain that it seems
that a trace file is not generated (I did a full disk search for the
trace file and could not find it) as it is very difficult to know

Re: [GNC] Linux Mint 18.2 Sonya and Gnucash 3.2

[Les]

I have a test laptop running LM 19.  I installed the GC 3.2 unsing 
Flatpac and it went without a hitch.  However, there was no support for 
obtaining quotes for stocks or currencies, even though F::Q 1.47 was 
installed and with an AlphaVantage key in the environment.


I am still using LM 18.2 on my production laptop running GC 2.6.21 which 
was installed using Snap.

The state of Gnucash in Ubuntu is not a happy one. Its packages are inherited 
from Debian, and for whatever reason, they've been lagging behind. I've tried 
to suggest upgrading a couple of times but to no avail, although one person did 
suggest that if I couched it as a Bug (i.e. version 3.2 fixes a lot of bugs) 
then I'd stand a better chance.

There is a version 3.2 coming through in Debian unstable. Seems like it might 
make it into 18.10, but that wouldn't get it into 18.04 or Mint 18.2. Getdeb 
used to be an option, but it died with no explanation last September. There was 
also an Ubuntu PPA which died. I offered my services to try compiling 3.2 but 
received no response.

It seems like perhaps your best option is one recently suggested on this list, 
which is to uninstall your current version and install the flatpack version, (a 
sort of app container, which includes all the dependencies). I installed this 
on a spare laptop, and it seemed to work and opened my 2.6 file without issue, 
but I haven't really kicked the tyres on it.
https://flathub.org/apps/details/org.gnucash.GnuCash

I think Linux Mint includes flatpack by default, so it may just be as simple as
flatpak install flathub org.gnucash.GnuCash
flatpak run org.gnucash.GnuCash

Of course, backup your accounts files, config etc first, so you can go back to 
2.6 should you need to.

I just migrated from Quicken to Gnucash. Loving it so far!

The question i have is: Will Gnucash 3.2 be available for Linux Mint 18.2?
The software manager installed 2.6.12
i did the apt update and upgrade and still same version is listed.

i also tried the getweb but got the same version, at least it told me the
same version was installed already.

I see the new version can be built from the source, but I am far from being
a Linux expert and never done that before.

Re: [GNC] Flatpack GnuCash v3.2 available in Linux Mint and flathub website

[Les]

Thanks for posting the Flatpack information.  I have a test machine 
running Linux Mint 19 on an older Dell laptop.  I went to the Flatpack 
site and installed GC 3.2.  The install went without a hitch.  I 
transferred my latest GC file on my production machine running GC 2.6.21 
and Linux Mint 18.2, to that machine and opened the file.  Everything 
looked great except:


there are no totals for Assets, Current Assets, Investments and several 
other accounts.  Also there was a $4.70 difference in Profits.  I 
haven't taken the time to track that down as yet.


I really like the ease of installation that Flatpack provides.

Thanks,

Les

Gnucash V3.2 is available in the Software Manager in Linux Mint 18.3

Installs OK and indistinguisable from my own build on my system. Can be
downloaded from the flathub site directly if you're not on Linux Mint.

The flatpack runs as  /usr/bin/flatpack --b. Not sure how that handles other
flatpack software? This is my first flatpack installation. whereis gnucash
does not return anything so the flatpack obviously hides the installation.

The flathub version may be a good option for Linux users not interestedin
building from scratch but wanting the latest stable version. It seems to
distribute up to date Linux packages independent of the distribution
packagers, which some recent posters have been seeking.

Following John Ralls' suggestions, I was able to enter a price

Re: [GNC] Strange Problem

[Les]

I guess the problem stems from the fact that although I had set the 
stock to get online quotes through AlphaVantage, the stock didn't 
update.  So, as John Ralls stated, the stock is not visible in Price 
Editor without a price. So, following the his instructions, I went to 
Price Editor, selected TSX, Add, and entered yesterday's closing price.  
It is now visible.


I have never encountered this before, as I guess all of my previous 
stocks had updated prices through online quotes.


Thanks to all for the help.

Les,

As John points out, you can use the Add button to enter a price even 
if the security has no prices displayed already. In fact, this is a 
freeform entry where you can manually enter prices for any security or 
currency in any currency, whether you have or have not set up a 
security account in your chart of accounts.  Conversely, if you have 
set up online retrieval for a security and that retrieval has 
succeeded in obtaining a price, then you will be able to find it in 
the Price Database display, again even if you do not have a security 
account set up in your chart of accounts.

You can’t see it in price editor because it doesn’t have any
prices yet. If you marked it for retrieval and Alphavantage is
feeling cooperative, “Get Prices” from the Price Database dialog
will pull in a price; otherwise you can click “Add Price”, the top

Re: [GNC] Problem With Price Editor

[Les]

I have set up a large number of stocks, so it is not my first by any 
means.  As a matter of fact, I setup another stock prior to this one 
without any issues.  Same procedure.  I have several brokage accounts 
and stocks in several countries, including Canada, Singapore, Hong Kong, 
Australia, previously other countries. Each country has its own 
currency, so the stock in question is in Canada, so I assigned CAD for 
its currency.

I am puzzled by the sequence that you described.
You stated that you went through the process of setting up a security 
account  but then you assigned a currency to that account which should 
be impossible because it is a security account.


Then you stopped before you got to the part where you would go back to 
the price editor and look under the namespace where you assigned the 
security to see (or not) the security symbol that was in the 
securities list.  Have you previously set up other securities?

Re: [GNC] Problem With Price Editor

[Les]

Ok, sorry.  I am running Linux Mint 18.2 with GC 2.6.21.  I am still 
having problems with AlphaVantage but manage to get downloads a couple 
of time per week.


For the record, I have been using GC since 2008.

I setup the new stock by click new account, entered the name of the 
stock and selected stock from the list and selected CAD for currency.  
This took me to the Security Editor where I reentered the stock name and 
its ticker symbol.  I checked get stock quotes and selected AlphaVantage 
for the source.


I then went back to the stock in my investments folder and entered the 
date acquired, the number of shares and the price, then the amount of 
the charge for the purchase, and then selected the brokerage account. 
Clicked save.

Les,

It is important that you clearly define your problem when you ask for 
help in this maillist.


I see that you have been trying things out with GnuCash for some time 
now, but when I sampled your comments I did not find a consistent 
pattern of mentioning the OS, or GnuCash version when asking about a 
problem.  I think that you are using release 2.6.21 installed by a 
procedure called Snap, which I know nothing about, into some version 
of Linux.  If you are now trying to use release 3.2, there is a 
completely different set of possible issues.


Further, I am confused about whether you completed the entire process 
of creating a security in the security list (which is not an account, 
by the way) with a proper ticker reference and security type as well 
as creating a security account associated with a brokerage account and 
entering an initial buy or sell transaction.  While the part of 
creating a security account and recording a purchase or sale is 
optional, it (a)helps to have a way to see the security in your data 
and (b)creates an initial price entry in the price database.


I also saw that you were having issues with setting up AlphaVantage 
earlier. Did you resolve those, or is that a part of the problem you 
are now having with the price editor?


Several of us are willing to help, but we need more specific details.

[GNC] Strange Problem

[Les]

Yesterday, I created a new stock account, like all of the other stock 
accounts that I have.  The strange thing is while the stock is listed in 
my Security Editor, it is NOT listed in Price Editor.  How is this possible?


How can I fix this problem?

Thanks,

Re: [GNC] Alphavantage Problem

[Les]

Thanks for the information. Although I haven't documented failures as 
you have, I have experience times when obtaining quotes was near 
impossible.  I just tried again with the same results (no quotes).


It usually takes me several attempts before I can obtain all my quotes.  
(I have stocks listed in several countries and about 8 currencies.)

I've noticed that around the 15th or 16th of every month since the switch
from Yahoo to AlphaVantage, I've had only limited success getting quotes
using Finance-Quote. Admittedly, I have a long list of equities that I track
but usually I get them all on the first try. Occasionally, a second pass is
required to get one or two quotes that are missing initially. However, for
whatever the reason, I have difficulty getting the majority around the 15th
or 16th of every month. I usually request updated quotations once a week
early on Saturday morning. Today was no exception and, as usual, the list
for which no quotes were available was a long one. Fortunately, I'm able to
download the complete list of the prior day's closing values from another
source so that I can manually enter the quotes that Finance-Quote missed.

Re: [GNC] Alphavantage Problem

[Les]

As of now, I am still unable to download prices. :-(  I have verified 
that nothing has changed with regard to my setup.  Still using Linux 
Mint 18.2, GC 2.6.21, AlphaVantage key is still residing in 
/etc/gnucash/environment.  I can obtain limited quotes using the 
terminal, but many of the quotes cojntain "deduced" with no data.


Any suggestions on how to resolve this issue, greatly appreciated.

Not cash but probably cash equivalents (so still under current 
assets). Other "negotiable paper" probably treated the same way. But I 
learned in the old days, and perhaps now* that direct wire transfers 
are much used, maybe modern accounting has another take on this. The 
point is, this is not really a gnucash question. You don't have a 
problem about HOW to enter an account for these but WHERE in the CoA 
the account belongs. That is an accounting question, not a gnucash 
question << you are looking for an answer that would apply even were 
you keeping books the old fashioned way, pen and ink on paper >>


Michael D Novack

* The point here is that going back hundreds of years, "bills of 
exchange" and other negotiable paper was how large amounts were moved 
over distance. Much safer than shipping gold.

Re: [GNC] Snap Package Manager

[Les]

After creating a new saved file, I tried installing GC 2.6.21 using
Snap.  When I entered "snap install gnucash" I received a message "no
gnucash found"! 

So much for snap, at least for now.
