Re: [GNC] Opening Balance on Reports

2020-01-05 Thread Christopher Lam
Wouldn't seem right to offer disable zero in the transaction report. But a
"running balance brought forward" as shown is a worth while addition that
can be added imminently.

So there won't be any need for the zero-amount transaction hack.

Re: [GNC] Corrupt security information

Bruno,

Ugh, the lot scrubber. Another variable in the problem.

Now I'm confused about the two trading accounts because you say that you've got 
5 trades in the asset account and each trading account. Do you have splits both 
INTC trading accounts for one transaction? What about Trading:CURRENCY:USD?

 Don't do anything drastic yet, but everything is pretty independent. You 
 could change the name on the old INTC and create a new INTC security and 
 GnuCash will happily use your INTC prices for pricing the new security. 
 They're linked by the security name and namespace, not by GUID. 
 Unfortunately GnuCash won't let you reassign the account but you can 
 create a new one and transfer the balance with a transaction.

Malcolm,

If you're intent is to keep detailed tax records for your business,  it is
probably better to keep those in separate files.   Ask your accountant
about that.

For casual personal purposes,  including managing bank account balances to
avoid overdraft s, it would be easier to have one data file with as many
bank accounts,  credit card accounts, etc. as you need.

Re: [GNC] Setting up Gnucash for Household

2020-01-05 Thread Adrien Monteleone
You should speak to a local CPA concerning how to arrange your books. Depending 
on your situation, you might be able to lump everything together, but you might 
have to split your two businesses and personal finances, or you might have to 
split everything.

This question is more aligned with accounting advice, which we can’t give here.

But once you’ve decided on separating or not, then we can help if you need with 
the GnuCash part.

I also recommend reading over the Tutorial and Concepts Guide to get familiar 
with how the software works.

Adrien

[GNC] Setting up Gnucash for Household

2020-01-05 Thread gnucash--- via gnucash-user
I want to use gnucash for tracking income and spending for my wife and I. I'd 
like some rudimentary advice on setting up gnucash. 

Our bank allows us to set up sub-accounts, so we have ended up with four 
accounts: a cheque account which is used by both of us for day to day expenses; 
a "web saving" account which will attract a very small amount of interest when 
money is stored there; my wife has an account for her business use; and I also 
have an account for my business use. We transfer money between these accounts 
as required. 

It seems as though we should have separate gnucash file for each of these 
accounts. If so, how do we handle the transfers between them? If it isn't 
necessary to have separate files for each account, how do I set up?

thanks,

Malcolm

1. Select the tab

2. Actions > Rename Page

Unfortunately, that tab doesn’t have an ID assigned and GTK seems not to have 
(yet) implemented the :first-child or :first-of-type pseudo classes so it can’t 
be targeted with CSS independent of the other tabs.

Re: [GNC] Error running Advanced Portfolio report

2020-01-05 Thread Dino Carubia via gnucash-user
 Nevermind... figured it out.  Found a transaction from 2011 that was the 
culprit.  This issue did not happen in older 2.x versions of GNUCash where 
transaction was entered,  so it must be a feature of 3.x versions!  :-)
To solve this issue, use edit/find to look for a transaction with shares equal 
to whatever GNUCash tells you in the error message.  Review results and look 
for cases where the 2nd to last transaction balance entry goes to 0 and then 
the last transaction balance entry goes negative.   In my case the dates were 
the same for the transaction so I just made the last transaction date one day 
earlier and the report started working.
Thanks to the dev team for a clear error message!

Thanks, yep, that tightens up the close button in the tabs. The only issue
(which I can live with) is it messes up or hides part of the text in the
main account tab--the one you cannot close, maybe called the immutable tab.
Probably because it does not have a close button. I thought about adding
some blank spaces to the end of this tab's name, but I now cannot figure

Re: [GNC] Corrupt security information

2020-01-05 Thread Bruno Acklin
I don’t think I have more than one asset account for INTC, and none of the 
trading accounts shows any transactions outside of the one I am using.
I am pretty sure I did not create a 2nd asset INTC (and doubt Gnucash would 
have let me), but I may have edited / moved it from NYSE to INTC in the 
security editor (which answers my last question, I guess ;-).
No worries, only about 5 trades in the asset account (and each trading 
account); I am mostly worried about loosing 20 years of pricing history, which 
is why I was looking for a way to export.

The issue came up when I started using Actions/View lots for calculating cap 
gains (working, but would need some work, such as an indication of the purchase 
date or lot in the automated entry, or way to define/edit a new lot, I think..)

Best regards,
Bruno

Re: [GNC] Corrupt security information

2020-01-05 Thread John Ralls
That's interesting. Do you have more than one INTC asset account, perhaps with 
different brokers (and perhaps hidden on your Accounts page either because you 
marked it hidden or have hide accounts with 0 balances turned on)? When you 
realized that INTC trades on NASDAQ and not NYSE did you edit the security or 
make a new one?

How many transactions are in each account?

Re: [GNC] Corrupt security information

2020-01-05 Thread Bruno Acklin
Thanks John,

I had a suspicion that this may be due to an ambiguous trading account: I had 
noticed that originally some transactions appeared under NYSE/INTC while my 
present security and prices are all under NASDAQ/INTC. There is no security 
defined under NYSE/INTC, but there is a trading account with that name (which 
has correct transactions and behaves normally), and one under 
Trading/NASDAQ/INTC with phony transactions ($number in the increase column 
instead of INTC shares), which is also caught in a rebalance loop.

Should I just delete one of the two trading accounts, and which one? I lean 
towards the NASDAQ one with the phony entries and then try to move INTC from 
NYSE to NASDAQ - how?

Best regards,
Bruno

[GNC] Error running Advanced Portfolio report

2020-01-05 Thread Dino Carubia via gnucash-user
I'm using GnuCash Version 3.7.  When I run the Advanced Portfolio report, it 
processes for a bit, then it stops and I get a partial report with an error 
message: "There is an error processing the transaction 'buying .0030 share 
units'. This may to be caused by a sell transaction causing a negative stock 
balance, and a subsequent buy transaction causing a zero balance. This leads to 
a division-by-zero error. It can be fixed by preventing negative stock 
balances."
I have searched for a transaction where I am buying .0030 shares and cannot 
find it.
Is this a known bug or a "feature" of 3.7?  Why does the order of negative and 
positive stock balances matter when processing this report?
Any help would be appreciated, thanks!

I'm guessing that was added in 3.x.  I have 2.6.19, under Windows 7, and
as I mouse over the files in the recent file list the status bar remains

Re: [GNC] Opening Balance on Reports

2020-01-05 Thread Evenmoreconfused
Thank you, this works nearly perfectly to achieve the desired effect.
Brilliant!

When I say nearly perfectly, it's only because the amount column for the
first (artificial) line shows $0.00, whereas it would be better
aesthetically if were blank. No matter -- in cases where I care enough I can
always export the report and remove it in Excel.

Still, since several people have posted work-arounds, it seems a common
enough requirement that perhaps in should eventually be a built-in option on
the standard Transaction Report.

Thanks very much to all,
Paul

[GNC] Misbehaving GnuCash main window

2020-01-05 Thread tJ3l33s via gnucash-user
If this matter has been discussed previously, can you you share the link with
me, please?  My searches didn't turn up what I was looking for.

System: MS Windows 10 Pro; Version 1903; OS Build 18362.535
GnuCash: Version 3.7; Build ID 3.7+(2019-09-07)

Question: Why does the GnuCash sometimes resize its main window to hide the
Windows taskbar, even when the window is already maximized?

Scenario:
1. Click the Maximize window icon on the GnuCash window frame.
2. Any open tab(s) for account(s) being viewed, e.g. Chequing, display fine.
3. Find and open an employee expense voucher.  The GnuCash window enlarges
and hides the Windows taskbar.
4. Close the employee expense voucher.  The GnuCash window continues to hide
the Windows taskbar.

Manual temporary fix:
1. Click the Restore window icon on the GnuCash window frame.
2. Sometimes, the edges of the GnuCash window need to be dragged with the
mouse to uncover the Windows taskbar.

I don't recall 2.x versions of GnuCash exhibiting this behaviour.

Thank you for your assistance.

Regards,
Peter

Re: [GNC] Corrupt security information

2020-01-05 Thread John Ralls
Bruno,

Don't do anything drastic yet, but everything is pretty independent. You could 
change the name on the old INTC and create a new INTC security and GnuCash will 
happily use your INTC prices for pricing the new security. They're linked by 
the security name and namespace, not by GUID. Unfortunately GnuCash won't let 
you reassign the account but you can create a new one and transfer the balance 
with a transaction.

John Ralls

Re: [GNC] Chaning left sidebar spacing

2020-01-05 Thread Adrien Monteleone
Tim,

Try these:

.GncMainWindow tab button {

 margin-left: 0px;
  
}

.GncMainWindow tab label {

 margin-right: -18px;

}

The label seems to have padding, but not as a CSS value. It seems to appear 
based on some attempt to keep the lettering centered in the tab object. I don’t 
see a way to change that. (I don’t see a ’text-align’ property exposed in the 
CSS)

I do see that the close button (not the image itself) has a 4px left (and 
right) margin. So I’d zero that out, and then you can cheat the button closer 
to the label text by setting an appropriate negative right margin on the label. 
I’ve played with -10 to -20 and -18 seems about right without getting too close.

Regards,
Adrien

Re: [GNC] Chaning left sidebar spacing

2020-01-05 Thread Adrien Monteleone
If that is the thread I’m thinking of, that was my first foray into the 
inspector and GTK-based CSS. I was going for specificity at the time.

'notebook tab/tabs' is more specific, but I don’t see tab anywhere else as a 
node, so is probably unnecessary.

However, I just realized the options/preferences dialogs use tabs physically 
and I see they have tab/tabs nodes as well *and* those tabs have an ascendant 
’notebook’ so using it won’t help.

I just fired up the inspector and see that the there are classes 
“GncMainWindow” and “GncOptionsDialog” respectively.

So adjust the declaration to something like:

.GncMainWindow tabs, .GncMainWindow tab {}

Which will not apply the styling to the options dialogs also. Unless that is 
what you intend, but I just found it does make the options tabs harder to read. 
Additional outlining or color styling might be necessary.

Adrien

information.

[GNC] "No mountable file systems" macOS DMG

2020-01-05 Thread Gabriel
The downloads page for Gnucash lists the mac requirements as ">= 10.9
(Mavericks)" but the dmg appears to be in APFS format, which is, I believe,
10.13+.

It'd be rad if you guys would release a non-APFS dmg! :-)

[GNC] Broken QFX import in 3.8

2020-01-05 Thread Jon Schewe
I just got version 3.8 using flatpak and it seems that the QFX import is 
broken. I download my QFX files as usual. Then use the import menu item 
to load the file. However GnuCash maps to one of my stock accounts 
rather than the correct bank account. Version 3.7 worked just fine.


Has anyone else seen this? Is there a way around it?

Jon

Re: [GNC] Difficulty in migrating Gnucash to second computer

2020-01-05 Thread boldstripe
You can show the 'file path' of a Gnucash file, that is the location on your
hard drive directory structure, if it is one of the 'recently opened' ones
listed under the main File menu. First, in View menu, make sure you have
selected to show the Status Bar (this bar appears right at the bottom, below
the active window). Then, as you move through the different files with the
mouse cursor, the full file path is displayed in the Status Bar.

It is easy to forget the file's location after using the recently opened
list for a while.

Another place it could be shown, often is in Windows programs, is under the
File>Properties, however this is not the case in Gnucash (at least at
present).
