Re: [GNC] OFX connections

2021-02-18 Thread John Ralls
I'm pretty sure David was being facetious. There's approximately zero chance 
that any bank is going to undertake developing a new transfer protocol. The 
trend is that Quicken's propietary Web Connect authentication is what's 
supported. We've kept USAA going only because USAA decided to stick with 
DirectConnect and Quicken made it easy to reverse-engineer the new 
authentication arrangement.

Now if somebody can reverse engineer Web Connect I'm sure Martin would be 
willing to implement it if it's feasible. He has the advantage of being largely 
beyond the reach of the DMCA.

Ideally Congress would mandate something like Germany's FinTS for the US. That 
campaign would need some very wealthy donors to bankroll it, the lobbying 
against such a mandate from the banking industry and from Intuit will be 
intense and they have a lot of money and lobbyists.

John Ralls

How do I go about that?

I use several banks for credit cards, etc.

I am not afraid to ask them.

[GNC] OFX connections

2021-02-18 Thread Richard via gnucash-user

I saw a long list of banks that do not support OFX connections.

That being said, is there a newer bank access protocol under development 
for gnucash.

Re: [GNC] Crash when updating scheduled template amount, repeatedly.

2021-02-18 Thread John Ralls
The screenshot shows a git master build from September 2019, presumably this 
flatpak nightly: 
https://code.gnucash.org/builds/flatpak/master/gnucash-master-C3.7-222-gae3bb9892-D3.7-39-g4b85e45.flatpakref

You should *never* use anything from master for production, and there's no 
point at all in testing or reporting bugs in an 18-month-old snapshot.

https://wiki.gnucash.org/wiki/Ubuntu has information on obtaining GnuCash 4.4 
from the Debian repository. Of course since GnuCash 3.8 seems to work for you 
you might as well keep using it unless there's something about GnuCash 4 that 
you find appealing, for example if you're a USAA member who wants to download 
transactions.

John Ralls

Hi,
Since GNU Cash does not include inventory recording, can anybody recommend an 
inventory recording system. I do not need all the inventory management 
capabilities, just record keeping, showing purchases, issues and balances in 
unit and cost.
Thanks

I'm not exactly sure what you are asking for.

That being said, I track my Cattle inventory (100 head) in expense and 
income accounts (you can add T accounts as needed).  GNC is an 
incredibly versatile program due to its great many under appreciated 
contributors/programmers.  It is much more than a true and perfect 
double entry accounting program.


You can track anything as long as YOU understand the accounts and have 
the time.  Right down to the number of packages of raman noodles you 
purchase if you so desire (personally a number I find quite disturbing 
at the end of the month).


All of the accounts you mentioned could be cash accounts if so desired.  
Problem is when you have a large number of individual items to record 
then your time inputting them is large.  A POS/Inventory system would be 
the preferred system for inventory. Which I have 100,000 lines of code I 
wrote for it I can get it out of the ancient computer I wrote it on, 
capable of 2 billion individual items (find myself in need of it again 
if I can retrieve the source code.  Passwords are a biotch if you forget 
them).  Then you could export income/expense to GNC for book-work.


If you wish then I would be willing to discuss possible methods through 
personal e-mail, not the list.
