I guess I stated the issue improperly. I was trying to edit the opening balance after a reconciliation attempt had failed. The reconciliation difference was exactly the amount of the opening on my paper statement. I then realized I had not entered an opening balance amount (using the opening

Rather than changing the opening balance a correcting transaction needed to be added. One side of the transaction would be the difference between the incorrect starting balance and the correct starting balance and the other side would be in Opening Balances or whatever caused the problem. Next

I tried that, but the reconcile window starting balance stayed fixed. -Original Message- From: gnucash-user [mailto:gnucash-user-bounces+c.pagan=sbcglobal@gnucash.org] On Behalf Of Ronal B Morse Sent: Tuesday, December 12, 2017 4:08 PM To: gnucash-user@gnucash.org Subject: Re:

Re: Gnucash & macOS High Sierra.

The base currency of the book is completely separate from the LC_MONETARY setting in the environment, so you can have a Euro account and still have LC_MONETARY set to en_GB so that you have dots for the decimal separator. As for storing 99/100 as ‘0.99’, that’s backwards. GnuCash always stores

Changing the currency is not sufficient. You need to change how numbers are printed. I'm not sure how to do that on your platform. -derek Sent using my mobile device. Please excuse any typos. On December 13, 2017 1:44:52 PM Pam Dooner wrote: Changing the locale seems

Hi, Well, the last potential issue is that the g_utf8_to_utf16() critical log message is the cause. This would imply that there is some non-UTF8 characters in your data file. How it got into your data file is unclear, but alas you might need to track that down. Can you try to open a backup

Not every report handles error conditions smoothly. It would be useful to summarise the report chosen and the options used. The report can then be fixed for the next release. On 13 Dec 2017 4:22 PM, "Dane Dormio" wrote: > I am running the latest version of GNUcash (2.6.18)

So, that sounds like a problem with a change in locale settings, and not a problem with Sierra.  I doubt the original poster is encountering the same problem as you.  David On Wed, Dec 13, 2017 at 16:39, Pam Dooner wrote: yes, definitely 2.6.18. Just tried again and

Are you sure that there are any transactions for the period you selected? I'm not certain, but I believe that an empty return set gives this. This is an unfortunate communication.  David On Wed, Dec 13, 2017 at 13:18, Dane Dormio wrote: I am running the latest

There is an issue when you are not using the latest version of gnucash on High Sierra. If you aren't using 2.6.18 download and install 2.6.18 and your issue should go away. Cheers Dave H. On 13 December 2017 at 08:47, James Armstrong wrote: > Hi, > > Without thinking
