That would work if I were transferring all of the shares in the
account to another account. But I'm only moving a portion of them (which
I don't think I previously made clear - sorry for that). It may be that
I end up having to synthesize new transactions that didn't actually
occur to accomplish this (e.g. breaking the original purchase into two
parts for the shares transferred / remaining), but I'd prefer the

There is very little about this topic in the mailing list archives.

Re: [GNC] Tutorial for moving stock between accounts?

[David T. via gnucash-user]

What part of creating a transaction that moves shares from the old account to 
the new account does not work? It would seem to me that:
Old account decrease 100 sharesNew account add shares
Would work just fine.

[GNC] Balance Sheet Report keeps listing all my individual stocks

[Stephen Knapp via gnucash-user]

Hello. I am having a problem that all my individual stocks are showing up in my 
Balance Sheet report. I have a hierarchy with INVESTMENTS (Asset): BROKER 
ACCOUNT(Asset): COMPANY A (Stock), COMPANY (Stock), etc. I have tried all 
different combinations of hierarchies and the Levels of Subaccounts settings, 
but the report keeps putting all the individual stocks in the report, versus 
the sought after investment total. 
Any help would be appreciated.

I'm not SURE about your question, it seems to have more than one part, 
so pardon my guessing.


a) You want to see a total for "INVESTMENTS" (and you aren't)
 This has to do with the subtotaling options you have selected via 
Edit=>Report Options. You can choose things like whether you want to see 
totals for parent accounts, and if so, before or after, etc.


HINT: If new to gnucash, or even experienced with gnucash but new to a 
particular report, the first thing you should do is run the report as 
"test" immediately entering Report Options to find out all the options 
you have for that report.


b) You have a hierarchy Assets:Investments:Broker Account:(Company A, 
Company B, )  That would be four levels of nesting. Are you saying 
that when you set the Balance Sheet nesting level to 3 (Report Options 
again) you still saw the individual stocks?

A little research shows that Linux Mint is based on Ubuntu with these
relationships (loosely to debian):

Mint <- Ubuntu <- Debian

19.1 Tessa <- 18.04 Bionic <- 10 buster

19 Tara <- 18.04 Bionic <- 10 buster

18.3 Sylvia <- 16.04 Xenial <- 9 stretch

18.2 Sonya <- 16.04 Xenial  <- 9 stretch

18.1 Serena <- 16.04 Xenial <- 9 stretch

17.3 Rosa <- 14.04 Trusty <- 8 jessie

17.2 Rafaela <- 14.04 Trusty <- 8 jessie

17.1 Rebecca <- 14.04 Trusty <- 8 jessie

17 Qiana <- 14.04 Trusty <- 8 jessie


So, I'd say you need to be on Tara or Tessa to have any hope.  You might
need to look at the Ubuntu dependencies and see if you need newer ones
on Mint.

What do the following commands show?

In case you don't know you can copy from the terminal window using Ctrl-Shift-C

Looks like it also needs
sudo apt install libboost-locale1.65.1
I imagine I already have that installed but can't check at this moment.

Re: [GNC] Tutorial for moving stock between accounts?

[David Cousens]

Jon,

https://wiki.gnucash.org/wiki/Concept_of_Lots gives some clues on how to 
perform stock splits and how shares are treated
as lots

Re: [GNC] Balance Sheet Report keeps listing all my individual stocks

[Michael or Penny Novack]

On 1/1/2019 1:59 PM, Stephen Knapp via gnucash-user wrote:

  @Michael. Thank you for the response.
I have toggled through all the options in the reports. Selecting and deselecting 
subtotals. I have also tried putting the individual stocks at different levels in the 
hierarchy. No matter the "options" setting or how many levels of hierarchy I 
put the stocks in, it seems that the report is alway treating each stock as a first level 
hierarchy. Thus far, I have been unable to produce a Balance Sheet without it listing 
every single individual stock in the report.
Does this make sense? Thanks again for your help.
Not exactly making sense since contrary to my experience. So let me ask 
some questions.


Report options are specific to a report run (not general settings). 
Which should make sense as soon as you think about it for a moment. You 
might not want the same options for different reports or even for 
different runs* of the same report. Are you running the report and THEN 
(with that report "open") applying the Report Options? If not, THAT is 
what you need to do.


I will repeat, contrary to my experience and this adjusting nesting 
level of report to show desired level of detail is something I most 
certainly do. For example, the board of directors might want to see the 
total amount of "goods inventory" but not how much is left of which 
batch of tee shirts, etc.  Similarly with things like the "fixed assets" 
they would want to see how much remains on the books for the total, 
POSSIBLY how much each piece of equipment, but don't care to see 
basis-accumulated depreciation levels.


Michael D Novack


* The run with the right level of detail for the board and the run I do 
in order to fill out tax forms not the same << non-profits might not PAY 
tax but they have filings to do >> Thus the board wants to see how much 
we paid contractors in total but not how much each (and if over $600 for 
the year need to do a 1099-MISC for them).

Re: [GNC] TXF export failure with 3.3 and 3.4

[Tim Quinn]

Thanks for the hint.

I tried your suggestion and get the same error, except with the tilde replacing 
the excl. point in the error message.

After some more searching I see that back in Feb. of 2018 uses of gnucash’s 
sprintf were converted to guile’s format function. Looking at guile’s format 
doc it does look like the tilde is necessary to indicate that what follows is a 
formatting string, so that reinforces what you said.

I also see in taxtxf.scm some uses of “format” as a variable. I have not had a 
chance yet to see if a “format” variable might be overriding the “format” 
function in the context at line 590 but I might try that next.

Or if there are other suggestions as to what else I can try…

Thanks.

- Tim

I suspect that https://bugs.gnucash.org/show_bug.cgi?id=797002 
 is the same problem. I passed 
on the suggestion about the format string. It didn’t work for her either.

Solved my own problem

Tools->Price Editor

Hit ADD button
Type ASX in the textbox  for Type: fill in the other details.

This can't be done from the New Account dialog for an account of Type Stock
however. The commodity has to be created first in the Price editor.

    That would work if I were transferring all of the shares in the
account to another account. But I'm only moving a portion of them (which
I don't think I previously made clear - sorry for that). It may be that
I end up having to synthesize new transactions that didn't actually
occur to accomplish this (e.g. breaking the original purchase into two
parts for the shares transferred / remaining), but I'd prefer the
gnucash history to reflect actual events insofar as possible.

The last time someone asked was about 5 years ago, AFAICT, and it
doesn't seem like the program is more capable in this area than it was
in 2013. But I am hoping someone else has addressed this specific
problem and documented how they accomplished it.

What part of creating a transaction that moves shares from the old account to 
the new account does not work? It would seem to me that:
Old account decrease 100 sharesNew account add shares
Would work just fine.?

Thanks, I will check that out.  Not sure that Linux Mint 19.1 is out 
yet, but 19.0 is

A little research shows that Linux Mint is based on Ubuntu with these
relationships (loosely to debian):

Mint <- Ubuntu <- Debian

19.1 Tessa <- 18.04 Bionic <- 10 buster

19 Tara <- 18.04 Bionic <- 10 buster

18.3 Sylvia <- 16.04 Xenial <- 9 stretch

18.2 Sonya <- 16.04 Xenial  <- 9 stretch

18.1 Serena <- 16.04 Xenial <- 9 stretch

17.3 Rosa <- 14.04 Trusty <- 8 jessie

17.2 Rafaela <- 14.04 Trusty <- 8 jessie

17.1 Rebecca <- 14.04 Trusty <- 8 jessie

17 Qiana <- 14.04 Trusty <- 8 jessie


So, I'd say you need to be on Tara or Tessa to have any hope.  You might
need to look at the Ubuntu dependencies and see if you need newer ones
on Mint.

[GNC] Non-zero starting balance?

[Bo Laurent]

I am a new gnucash user; I am preparing my records to share with my
accountant for the first time (previously using Quicken for Mac).

My checking account was balancing, for every statement from January 2018 to
Nov ember 2018, and I looked over a transaction report and changed quite a
few items.

Now my checking account has a strange starting balance (tens of thousands
of dollars, when it should never exceed 10,000). I decided to start from
zero by re-balancing November 1, 2017 (there are no transactions earlier
than Dec 21 2017). But strangely, the starting balance shows $48K. How can
a gnucash show a non-zero starting balance for an account when the
reconciliation date is earlier than the earliest entry?

Re: [GNC] Non-zero starting balance?

[David Carlson]

Bo,

If you still have copies of your bank statements you can review the
register a nd compare the running balances to your statements to see if or
when the balances do not match.  If there are a few outstanding items at
the end of a statement period they should account for any difference.

You probably entered one transaction at the beginning to set your original
starting balance in the register.

If you allowed Gnucash to automatically re balance your account at some
point there may be additional transactions that do not match your
statements which you will need to find and delete.

In general it is ok to ignore a difference in the reconciliation starting
balance from your bank statement if your running register balance matches
except for outstanding items.

Such a difference might come from an item that was entered with an earlier
date to correct some previous error.
