Re: finance-quote error

Confused why the Price Quote worked up till Nov. 1 when all my Google searches indicate the API was pulled back in July. Why was it still working till yesterday? What are the Gnucash developers going to do to remedy the problem? I see that there is a free API from Alpha Vantage. Why can't the

Re: finance-quote error

I found another program that may still be able to get prices, including historical prices. It just worked a moment ago to get the price of a NYSE stock. It would not be trivial to export tables from that program to import into GnuCash, but maybe someone wants to try... Google "TakeStock2" On

Copying fields in a filtered account sheet

You Guru's as GnuCash Firstly thank you very much for this great piece of software but as always we want more ... :-) Is it possible to allow the user to copy part or complete accounts sheets using the crtl c, ctrl v option? This would come in very useful when segmenting data based on

Roger, I use an account called Liabilities:Customer Deposits. When I receive the funds I debit cash/checking and credit the Customer Deposit liability account. When I apply their deposit to an invoice, I ‘pay’ the invoice with that liability account. You probably will want to make

I too hope that Yahoo hasn't withdrawn the API.  Who would be available to take their place?  I edited some of my securities to scrape from the First Trust Portfolios but whatever has happened with Yahoo has broken all the other stock price listings too it seems. From: John Ralls

Re: Price Editor broke today for unknown reasons

Yes, that is what I meant.  The "Get Quotes" function within the Price Editor which uses the Perl Finance:Quote module.  I even when into the Security Editor and tried a couple of the other stock scrapers for some of the securities.  Whatever has happened to Yahoo has borked everything.

Showing paid ahead customer balances

Getting a report by payee/description for a set of dates across a set of accounts, is still opaque to me, though. I have a "travel" account under expenses-discretionary, that is itself split into lodging, travel, fees, etc. I am trying to retrieve all transactions from all these subaccounts

Re: Outgoing personal loan clarification

It m not be correct accounting, but I would have set up a checking account using the borrowers name. Transfer the 2000 from your account to the new one, then as they make payments, transfer from their account back to yours. When it reaches 0, you can delete it or just leave it. On Nov 2, 2017

I can't get Price Editor to work today. Worked fine up till yesterday.  Now all it does is hang GnuCash with a spinner and timeout.  I completely removed Perl and reinstalled including the Finance-Quote module.  When I run gnc-fq-check, gnc-fq-dump, and gnc-fq-update, they all come back with
