John, Thanks for the suggestion. I inserted the line as you indicated (at line 324 in my copy of gnc-fq-helper), but didn’t get any output on the command line after “Found Finance::Quote version 1.47” I’m not much for perl, but I noticed your snippet had one ‘(‘, one ‘{‘, and two ‘}’. I

Applying Customer overpayments

Hello, I'm having an issue with GnuCash. A customer has a overpayment/credit balance. How do I apply it to an invoice so that it comes out of the AR report at the bottom of the customer report? The total due / sums are correct, but the customer report has a 91+ day balance of (0.03). I would

David, You can put the attached config.user file in your DOT_GNUCASH_DIR ($HOME/ Library/Application Support/Gnucash) If you then start gnucash from the command line, it should print out the value of your API key there, together with the version of Finance::Quote that got installed. Unless the

Finance::Quote - ASX problems (alphavantage and ASX sources)

Hi All, Just a quick heads up that neither source for ASX share prices is working properly/consistently at the moment (or at least I haven't worked out the consistency issues with alpha vantage).  1) The old (and most reliable) "Single" source data feed direct from the ASX stopped working

You could also, without any alphavantage stuff, obtain quotes from the "yahoo_json" source, again using NAB.AX as the symbol. Hopefully yahoo won't kill off this source, too. - Ken Farley -- Sent from: http://gnucash.1415818.n4.nabble.com/GnuCash-User-f1415819.html

Oh, and I mentioned this in the earlier thread, but it bears repeating: the Security Editor window has the option to display price source. As with the Chart of Accounts window, there is a selector arrow on the upper right corner which drops down a list of user-selectable co,lumns for display.
