Re: [GNC] Rounding & formulas

2020-12-20 Thread Peter West
I don’t understand why "total_amount-(total_amount/2)” doesn’t work. I’m assuming that two formulae are used: total_amount/2 & total_amount-(total_amount/2), as the OP specifies. If the amount is odd, the first should be (given consistent truncation of the dividend by integer division)

I don't know if the math functions are available, but various languages have rounding functions. If there's a rounding function, perhaps round up and round down can be used? odd_cent_total/2 will have a fractional cent value in the answer, so round up to the nearest cent for you and down to

Note, I'm not aware of a 'proper' solution that you are looking for. Sounds like a lot of effort to avoid changing a single digit on review when occasionally the original amount is odd. I would expect your try at "total_amount-(total_amount/2)" to only work half the time, thus a coin flip.

David, It may be that Bayesian matching works but the import matcher window did not come up in the dialog when I was writing the docs from memory. I have the same problem - I don't use the QIF import at all. I collected some test files from my bank which duplicated the OFX import I normally use

I thought the Bayesian matching worked with QIF imports too. Has that been discontinued? Unfortunately, I rarely use the QIF format and I only have one poorly formed sample easily available to test. That sample fails completely. On Sun, Dec 20, 2020 at 2:56 AM David Cousens wrote: > Bruce >

What do you mean by "remembers"? Are you asking if it can automatically fill in details when you start typing a new transaction? Yes, it can if you have entered a similar transaction before. If you are asking about something else, please rephrase your question. On Sun, Dec 20, 2020, 2:20 AM
