GnuCash names files in ~/.local/share/gnucash/books according to the filename of the GnuCash data file. This is a bit of a problem for me because I expect to be able to have multiple GnuCash data files with the same name in different places.
For example I keep church building accounts in a file called 'building.gnucash' with the accounts for each year in a different sub-directory of my church accounts system. I.e. there are:- /home/chris/pcc/2020/building.gnucash /home/chris/pcc/2021/building.gnucash /home/chris/pcc/2022/building.gnucash Is there any way around this problem? As it is various configuration settings get changed as I move round my accounts, in particular the reporting period. Keeping all the church's accounts, and correspondence and other files for one particular year makes sense for me (and the auditor!). I *could* add the year to the GnuCash data file name but that does make it rather long and clumsy, and it makes for redundant information which Mr Codd doesn't like! :-) -- Chris Green _______________________________________________ gnucash-user mailing list gnucash-user@gnucash.org To update your subscription preferences or to unsubscribe: https://lists.gnucash.org/mailman/listinfo/gnucash-user If you are using Nabble or Gmane, please see https://wiki.gnucash.org/wiki/Mailing_Lists for more information. ----- Please remember to CC this list on all your replies.
