The business features are where its at...while its cool to do your own
budget and its great at tax time, using gnucash for personal finances
is optional. But for people who run small businesses and have gotten
tired of Intuit's licensing shell game (you can buy this license and
get that feature or that license and get this feature, but we don't
even sell a license that does both...A/R on Consultants, for instance,
is not available, only if you get Manufacturing, but then you don't the
Consultants stuff...so basically, they can blow me...but I digress),
gnucash is a must.
Yes, a drop down list for all that stuff would be great, like the combo
box idea, but for invoices, keep in mind it would still be nice to
select multiple non-sequential ones, hopefully the combo-box allows
that.

I looked in section 12.8 of the tuturial and concepts guide first.
That's the section on processing payments under the accounts receivable
chapter. It states, roughly:
Payment Information - Invoice - the invoice
for which payment was received. When you select an invoice, the
Amount field is set to total due for the selected
invoice.
The phrase "when..." does have an air of optionality about it, but there
is no mention that entering a larger amount will automatically credit
the next invoice in line.
Anyway, this is good that we now know this, but I'm not sure this
addresses the case if a customer pays invoice (let's say) 1 and 3 but
not 2 on the same check. For instance, they might be disputing invoice
2, so they pay 1 and 3. I guess I could fiddle with the invoice dates
to get them to credit 3 after 1 (thus skipping 2), and that would work,
but its not as nice as being able to select multiple invoices from the
select list, which is in essence what Quickbooks let's you do.
So my preference would be to enhance the "select invoice" dialog box to
allow multiple selections, say with a shift-click, or ctrl-click, or
whatever. That's what I found to be most intuitive.
Secondly, I searched the mail-archives in the gnucash-users list, and
though I found some discussion of single cheque multiple invoices, I
never found the solution that Derek mentioned. In fact, the amount
being credited in order to the next invoice as Derek explains is also
not in the concepts guide.
But documentation enhancements aside, I think others have also expressed
an interest in not always having to do a 'find ...'
{invoice,customer,etc.} and just rather have a drop down list show
everything for that category, but that's getting off on a different
topic.
For this topic, I still might take a stab multiple selections for
invoices, but I'm the bottom of the learning curve for gnucash, which
is a perfect place to start...

Don't be sorry. I've been using gnucash for years to run a small business and I had no idea it would do this. I've been fiddling around with a temporary transfer account to split cheques across multiple payments.

Re: Feature request: process multiple invoice with single payment
Um, gnucash has ALWAYS supported this. It will pay the invoices in FIFO order. If you select an invoice in the process payment dialog (you dont have to! it's completely optional) then it puts that invoice at the front of the FIFO, but any overpayment will then spill over to the next one in the list.

Feature request: process multiple invoice with single payment
Hello, I am a programmer, even did some Scheme work way back in the old days (loved programming in Scheme...) of TI-Scheme on a IBM-DOS box. Judging from some of the comments on the gnucash-users mailing list, my own experiences, and reality, it is quite often the case that a customer will send a payment for multiple invoices on a single check. We are switching to gnucash from Quickbooks/M$, where this feature was available and quite useful. If someone could direct me to the source code area where such an enhancement could be made, I'd start trying to implement this feature...unless someone has already...in which case I could assist, if needed. Also, if anyone has some words of wisdom on what I should lookout for/consider along the way, that would be appreciated... Regards, John Z. Bohach P.S.: Thanks to everyone who has worked on this project for so long...it is a really great program that is well on its way to competing with the proprietary accounting programs. ___ gnucash-devel mailing list gnucash-devel@gnucash.org https://lists.gnucash.org/mailman/listinfo/gnucash-devel
