Re: [GNC] install 2nd app to start over
The reference to the "terminal" suggests a Mac, but I'll defer to PH. PH, it's not clear why you think configuring a transaction report would require any coding; most reports have extensive options to select specific transactions and accounts, so it's really necessary for you to describe what it is that is not happening. I will note that the standard Transaction Report opens without any data initially, and that you must open Options and select accounts to include subsequently. But that doesn't involve coding or the terminal; is just clicking the Options button on the ribbon and selecting things. This is covered in the Tutorial and the Help. David T.

Re: [GNC] install 2nd app to start over
Well, if it sounds reasonable. Installing a newer version will retain your records and may solve the issue. I'm assuming you've gone to the help files to learn how to create the transaction reports. They are not necessarily intuitive and may draw from different settings. Just be sure to back everything up first. I don't know how long you've been using gnucash or what platform you have, but I also don't know if that would make a difference in this case. Just DO back everything up. (Says the gal who has been using Gnucash for 5 months.)

Re: [GNC] install 2nd app to start over
Why don't you just start another gnucash file? Name it something different and take it from there.

[GNC] install 2nd app to start over
hi everyone i've been struggling with my transaction reports and can't easily figure out how to fix things, so i thought i could install gnu cash again and simply start over (probably a good idea anyway as it's been years on the old file). it's a year when i feel many things could bear with a fresh start. can i just install it again? do i need to change the name when downloading/ saving (ie gnucash-2) etc for latest version? any tips? thanks. ph ~:~:~:~:~:~:~:~:~:~:~:~:~:~:~:~:~: writer ~:~ photographer ~:~ book designer resident manager paulahendricks.com ___ gnucash-user mailing list gnucash-user@gnucash.org To update your subscription preferences or to unsubscribe: https://lists.gnucash.org/mailman/listinfo/gnucash-user - Please remember to CC this list on all your replies.
