Re: [GNC] Loan & Insurance Rate
Antoine, There is no way you can simply incorporate the insurance payments into the GnuCash loan calculations, at least at present, as the wizard does not have the capacity to do this. It has not been programmed to treat this situation. It is possibly better to set up the loan calculation in a spread sheet where you can incorporate the additional insurancepayment into the balance of the loan at each payment interval.

Refer to http:// > wiki.gnucash.org/wiki/Bugzilla on how to use our bug tracker. For the actual problem my solution would be as follows. Firstly I would grab the current conversion rate via Finance-Quote or get it from somewhere else. That next thing would be to setup an temporary assset account in CAD so that you can record your income later on. After this I would write the invoice and use the account previously set up as the Income Account. Beware when writing the invoice you’d have to write the converted amount in USD in the unit collumn. Luckily gnucash has rudimentary calculator functions so that you can just write 100.00 press ÷ or × depending which way the quote is given and paste the rate and you should get the converted amount. I would mention the CAD amount in the description and maybe also add the conversion rate there or after the total invoice amount. Then go on and add your other billable lines. If you’re going to post the invoice, you’ll get asked for the conversion rates. If everything plays out you should get the same amount in CAD, else just change it, there sometimes are little rounding errors. The last operation would be to add a transaction from the temporary CAD asset account to your normal USD income account.

Re: [GNC] Fedora => Debian 3.2 => 2.1.15 Data Conversion Issues (Solved)
Dear List, for the next running into these issues. My Problem: I am running debian stable/strech 9. The stable version delivers a pretty old gnucash. I have used gnucash on fedora before, was there on 3.2 already and could not use the more recent database in the old version. So I removed the old gnucash and installed gnucash 3.2 via flatpak in this way: (1) I installed flatpak via apt. (2) Opened the application "Software" and installed gnucash. The cause: Gnucash started in English, no matter what I have tried. This process has not installed the locales for gnucash. You can recognize this situation by starting it from command line via $ flatpak run org.gnucash.GnuCash It will give you "The locale defined in the environment isn't supported. Falling back to the 'C' (US English) locale". I found a hint [1] and issued: $ flatpak remote-ls flathub | grep gnucash org.gnucash.GnuCash org.gnucash.GnuCash.Debug org.gnucash.GnuCash.Locale org.gnucash.GnuCash.Sources This shows, that gnucash seems to have a subpackage .Locale that smells like my missing translations. As I had modified my local flatpak installation, I removed gnucash with $ sudo flatpak --system uninstall org.gnucash.GnuCash and installed them again with: $ sudo flatpak --system install flathub org.gnucash.GnuCash org.gnucash.GnuCash.Locale And it worked: flatpak run org.gnucash.GnuCash => German Thanks for your patience with me!

Re: [GNC] Accounting for Refund
Thanks, Geert. Here’s my situation. I invoiced client for a number of costs I would incur for them, some of which I did not ending paying. They don’t want me to apply this as a credit against outstanding invoices. They want me to return the $. I wanted to use the credit note as a way of detailing what funds I am returning and to balance out the income I received for which thee’s no corresponding expense. But it seems to only understand the credit note as a form of income. Kind regards, Eric W. Rathhaus Law Office of Eric W.

Customer invoices are debits in Accounts Receivable and Credit notes are credits. What is a "positive" number for you in this context ? If you want to use the credit note to balance the outstanding invoices balance, you can "pay" your invoices with that credit note. You do so by opening Business->Customer->Process Payment... Enter the customer and select the invoices/credit notes you wish to offset. If there's a remaining balance you may want to set it to 0, unless you also want to record a payment for this remaining balance in one go. Is this what you were looking for ? By the way there was a bug in gnucash 3.0-3.2 where credit notes were of the wrong sign. So be sure to work with the most recent version for proper credit note handling.

No. Autosave is a full save and as such updates the main file. The log files are updated while you create/modify/delete a transaction. Closing the program will do nothing if nothing changed since the last time the file was saved. If there are changes it will ask whether you want to save those before closing the program.

I believe you have just pushed the boundaries of what to do with invoices further than anyone ever could have imagined :) I don't think anyone so far ever considered the case of having billable expenses in a different currency from the invoice currency. And from what you tell I gather it's currently not supported. The currency logic is pretty simple: every amount you see in the invoice entries is assumed to be in the customer's default currency. They income account for each entry can be in a currency different from the invoice account. In that case a currency conversion will be applied when posting this amount to the income account. But as amounts for billable items come from the entries, they are assumed to be in the customer's currency. This is a bug either way: or gnucash should prevent an entry from appearing as billable if it's original bill is not in the same currency as the invoice, or gnucash should support this and properly handle currency conversions. The first solution will be far more easy to implement than the second though. Can I ask you to file this as a bug report in bugzilla ?

[GNC] Multiple currencies and business functions
I have cases with both billable employee expenses (vouchers) and billable purchases (vendor bills) which need to go on customer invoices. This is fairly straight forward... the problem I'm having is how to deal with these when the currency I'm entering the voucher or bill in is not the same as the customer's invoice currency. To use a concrete example, say I've got a $100 employee expense in CAD that gets marked as billable. If I have a client whose default currency is USD, when the item is added it appears with the CAD value ($100) but is added up in the total at the bottom as if it's USD. Is there a step I'm missing somewhere to get it to show up as a USD value in the invoice? ___ 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.

Re: [GNC] Fedora => Debian 3.2 => 2.1.15 Data Conversion Issues
Good morning, I have analyzed this issue a bit more. Seemingly, the flatpak image does not contain the german localizations. When I start gnucash manually, I get the error, that the localization is broken and that it is falling back onto English. Until now I added: (1) in /etc/... there is an environment file. I added a environment.local file and added LANG=de_DE.UTF-8 (Maybe this is not needed, if German is available as locale) (2) I noticed that in the locale directory there is only one valid sub directory containing the english Texts. The other language dirs are links to non-existing places. I have deleted the dir link for German and copied a gnucash.mo file out of an RPM into a new created dir, hoping that the MO files are compatible. It did not work yet. I still get the same error message. My plan for the next step is to try to remove the wrong directory links. Maybe they break the searching for available locales. In case I am able to fix it, I will come back, report here and in the already existing issue in the ticket system for flatpak gnucash. Thanks for your help!
