My first guess would be that you changed the monitor setup. GnuCash saves the 
sizes and positions of its windows in the "book" file of its state directory. 
It can't see your monitor setup so if you change it those saved sizes and 
positions can be out-of-whack.

[GNC] menu sizes

Hi - for some reason, recently whenever I open gnu cash, all the dialogue boxes 
open with the bottom buttons barely visible and unusable until I drag the box 
sides to make each one bigger.  This is extremely inconvenient and annoying.  
Anyone have an idea as to what I did to make this happen and how to correct it?

Re: [GNC] transaction not appear

2019-07-22 Thread David Cousens via gnucash-user
Chris,
A common problem often occurs with date entry. At one stage 4 digit dates
were not recognized automatically and a date enterd in 2018 coiuld appear in
a year '20 for example. The other possibility is the d-m-y or m-d-y 
ambiguity which can put transactions in the wrong month. GnuCash appears to
be pretty good at setting up locales in the V3 series  and interpreting date
formats but it is worth checking the preferences (
Edit->Preferences->Date_Time tab ).

Re: [GNC] transaction not appear

2019-07-22 Thread Stan Brown
The truthful answer is that, unless you closed the file without saving,
they're wherever you put them. But that's not terribly helpful. :-)

Simplest thing is to let GC find them for you. Go into the Accounts page
and press Ctrl+F. This will initiate a search of all transactions in all
accounts. I usually find it helpful to search by "Description, notes, or
memo", and just enter some word that I used in one of the missing
transactions.

Once you've located them, make sure that the transaction date is what
you thought. If the transaction still doesn't appear in the account or
report were you're expecting it, check whether you've got a filter in
place that is hiding it.

Your accountant does not need account numbers. He will have his own software
to generate his workpapers. He can work without them.

He may find it a convenience to have numbers to make sure that any adjusting
entries later given to you go to the right place, but that is optional.

Re: [GNC] How to enter Gold?

2019-07-22 Thread Eric Coates via gnucash-user

Michael


I wonder what???s the best practice on how to enter physical Gold into GNC. Is 
there anybody who has done that before?


I added gold to my list of "thingies" fairly recently.

The way I did it:
(1) Right click on the  Assets  class and choose   New Account
(2) In the window that appears enter an Account Name (let's say 
BULLION); optionally enter an Account Code and description
(3) The next bit is a bit odd but bear with me: in the Security/currency 
section click Select... in the mini window that appears under Type 
choose Currencies and then for Currency scroll almost to the bottom and 
choose XAU. Then click OK

(4) Back in the main window for the Smallest fraction I'd select 1/1
(5) Make sure that the Account Type is Asset, add anything else you want 
and click OK

(6) And you will have an account called BULLION appear under Assets.

As far as I can see this account can be used to record your holding of 
gold but, of course, you will need to enter the purchase of said gold 
and (I assume) you'll want to track its value This is where that odd bit 
comes in. As far as I can see purchasing the gold is done in much  the 
same way as you'd buy some shares EXCEPT THE UNIT IS ONE TROY OUNCE. 
Note that this means that if you buy coins (or jewellry, I guess) you'll 
have to find the gold content - I found that relatively straight forward.


Now, when you update share prices XAU is automatically included and 
(rather magically to my mind appears) as GBP (I'm in the UK and GBP is 
my base currency). Rather magically because the price of gold is usually 
quoted (on the web) in USD - but hey, let's say we're lucky that someone 
has waved a magic wand behind the scenes.


It all seems rather simple now but at the time it took some work to get 
my head around things, whilst I was in that mode I was using a dummy 
copy of my accounts - slight hint, it may be best that you do too.


I guess you are in Germany, they are a sensible people so they may work 
in grams. A dummy transaction (in the dummy accounts) and some hand 
checking may show up any extra niggles


One major mistake I made was in the buying of the gold. The bullion 
dealer's web site said "purchase gold using a credit card or debit 
card". In my innocence (or as my wife called it "stupidity") I used a 
credit card. The card company hit me with a hefty "cash transfer" fee. 
Thinking about (post event!) it seems obvious why.


Good luck. Best wishes

Eric

Re: [GNC] Concern with the lengthy list of "Known Issues"

2019-07-22 Thread Christoph R
Hi,

I am using gnucash since 2004 for multiple accounts and have my whole personal 
history since then in one file. I am running gnucash on MacOs in German which 
is somewhat special and the only dev for MacOs is John. Thanks to him for all 
the work putting he is putting in! I was a pretty happy user up until 3.0. 

But with the 3.x series there are more problems than I am used to and progress 
is very slow. The only version working for me so far is 3.5, which is my 
production version for now. Versions before crashed or failed on important 
operations (like the csv importer, which is the main reason I am using 3.x). 
3.6 apparently has a stray ifdef on MacOs which makes the program always fall 
back to English. So I am back to 3.5.

And the release cycle is pretty long. So even when bugs are fixed it takes a 
lot of time to get them in a stable build.

As much as I am proponent of using the latest software versions: with gnucash 
3.x I cannot wholeheartedly
recommend it. The good thing though is that you can try and go back. The latest 
2.x version reads 3.x files. And switching between 3.x versions back and forth 
works too.

Cheers,
Christoph

You replied correctly.  You apparently clicked the "Reply to List" 
option.  If there is an option in your mail client to "Reply to All", 
that would work also.  Replying directly to a poster's email address 
only is discouraged.  If the "List" isn't included in the dialog others 
couldn't benefit in the resolution, or realize when the issue is resolved.


There's usually a reminder of this in the footer of the messages.

Re: [GNC] Concern with the lengthy list of "Known Issues"

2019-07-22 Thread John Ralls
The enhancement requests are already filtered out. 

Unfortunately there's no good way to express priority or importance in BZ 
without getting into edit wars with some reporters, so we don't.

I think it would be a big help if that list were sorted by priority so the
many that are either minor or feature requests were separated from others.

Re: [GNC] Concern with the lengthy list of "Known Issues"

2019-07-22 Thread Bruce Irving via gnucash-user
I started with 2.x and had a couple of very irritating issues.  When  
discovered 3.5, I up-graded and my issues were history.  I have since upgraded 
one of my systems to 3.6 still have only minor inconveniences.  I believe that 
I noticed the list you mentioned but I have seen similar lists in a lot of SW 
that I use and treat is as more of a "wish list" of things that might need 
fixing.  (In the process of up-grading, I discovered the manuals and have been 
able to improve my GC experience greatly.)Bruce

Re: [GNC] Include Account Numbers on Trial Balance Message-ID:

2019-07-22 Thread Bruce Irving via gnucash-user
I learned bookkeeping BC (before computer).  As a result, I do most of my work 
in the General Journal.  When I set up the accounts in GC the account number 
was part of the name, ie:  101 Cash on Hand.  This is one way of getting the 
account numbers on the reports.  I use GC for both personal accounts and a 
non-profit organization.  It is much better than the old excel spreadsheets 
that I had been using.Bruce

Workaround
Export to a file which you open in a spreadsheet
Add in the account numbers...

It's slightly better than printing and writing them in.

Is this a requirement of your jurisdiction or of your accountant?
