Re: [GNC] Unexpected change in reconcile status

The reconcile-status being reset when editing past transactions' description/notes/memo was a change that was later reverted, although I cannot find the exact release. In latest releases, reconcile-status is reset only when editing split's account & amount IIRC. On Wed, 2 Sep 2020 at 05:45, John

Michael and Janet, I would consider this to be a logical consequence of editing a transaction (and potentially changing the amount). In commercial packages like Quicken/Reckon, MYOB, Xero et al, the same applies. Other packages don't allow you to change a completed transaction - you must do a

Thanks for your responses. To David Carlson: I have taken advantage of the GNC feature that allows me to save the format for the CSV files. I have one for each institution that I import from and haven't changed them, so I don't think it is a date format problem. Also, thanks for the info on the

Nobody knows the value of a fixed asset like a house other than the buyer when he makes an offer. This includes GnuCash. There are ways to trick GnuCash into showing what your tax assessor or Zillow might estimate, but it would be a lot of work to manually update your estimates from time to

Hi Arthur, You sent it to the right place :-) 4.1 is the current version, what exactly do you mean by maintenance builds ? If you mean nightly builds yeah expect things to get buggered up sometimes so if it's a problem for you I suggest you go back to the stable release and stay there. Cheers

Be sure to set the date format on the import page to match the format used in your csv file before you try to import. This is a known issue going back a long time. I thought that the current release had been modified to address this issue, but apparently not. I cannot check it from here.
