Resending to proper group....
I set up GnuCash as best possible by extracting what I could from my crashed
Quicken, and many Excel spreadsheets. And 6 months of work.
I got all the info in, but not working properly.
I want to start fresh, almost.
I have created clean CSV files for the AR and AP; and transaction files to fill
in the bank ledgers.
What I need is to clean GnuCash of everything Except the account tree, vendor
and customer database.
(Maybe I missed something, but the exported version of vendor and customer data
has only name and ID number.)
Any ideas on how to do this, or how to not need to do this are appreciated.
Thanks,
Eric

Interesting. That location did work.
Further, some data went to /home/steve/.var/app/org.gnucash.GnuCash/data/
<http://org.gnucash.gnucash/data/>
But /home/steve/.var/app/org.gnucash.GnuCash/data/gnucash/
<http://org.gnucash.gnucash/data/gnucash/> is more complete.
Thank you very much for your help.
Steve

For certain cases the migration to 4.11 has " lost " some information, this is
a known issue . Check other messages for more information.

I see I was not clear in my description of the transactions.
I wrote a check for the full price of a golf cart to a dealer.
The next day, a friend gave me their half of the cost.
Some years later, I sold the golf cart and I got the full selling price from
the buyer.
A few days later, I gave half of the selling price to my friend.
I guess I could record the purchase as 1/2 to golf cart asset and 1/2 to short
term loan to friend. And that loan is paid back the next day.
And the same idea would be used for the sale.

Sounds reasonable.
You'd need a liability (or contra-asset) account to handle the parts of the
transaction to facilitate owing and paying your friend.
This is similar to the example in the Guide (or is it the Wiki) concerning
shared household expenses or trip expenses between roommates/friends.
