Hi James,
1. It appears as though you did.
2. The New Customer screen shows an "Email" field near the bottom of the 
first screen.  Is this what you are asking, or do you want the Email 
address field to appear somewhere else?


Cheers,
Jeff

Re: [GNC] Odd Invoice Total (Rounding Issue Maybe)

[Jeff]

Hi List,
Updated Comments on bug 612957. It seems this has been around for a while.

How are others using GnuCash in Australia with 10% GST (or other 
locations with Tax Included amounts being the normal way of expressing 
prices) entering Invoices to get around this issue?


Any advice appreciated, as I would like to upgrade to a more current 
version of GnuCash, but may need to stick with the old version while 
this issue is around if I can't find a workable solution.


Note, I have had the odd Invoice/Bill on the old system where the TAX 
amount is a cent different from the shops Receipt, but the Invoice/Bill 
total has always been correct.  I guess maybe this is the same rounding 
issue, just affecting the calculated values rather than the entered values.


Thanks,
Jeff.

On the gnucash.org homepage you must have missed the "Development" panel -
first item - "How to help" points to
https://wiki.gnucash.org/wiki/Contributing_to_GnuCash which covers how to
help with development - scroll down to "Coders" section.  Further links in
it re coding standards, yada, yada, yada.

Re: [GNC] Mass Reconcile

[davidcousens49]

Fred,

Ctrl + A Select all content in nearly all computer systems. 

The multiple selection with a mouse is:
Ctrl + Left click   Add the line to the selection;
Shift + Left click  Select all between the current line and the line clicked on;
SHift + Up arrow  Select one line up from current line;
Shift + Down arrow  Select one line down from current line.

This doesn't work in the main menus but does AFAIK in the Reconcile and the
Import Matcher Window. I have usually found with the CTRL-Left Click I have to
use it twice, once to activate the multiple selection mode and again to select
the item. Once it is activated a single ctrl-click seems to work.

Most of these are set in the GTK library and are not GnuCash specific which is
likely why they are not listed in the Wiki or guide. I haven't been able to find
a reference specific to GTK which defines the key combinations they set and
support by default but they do include many of the combinations listed in the
references below. The specific key combinations for a given function are also
sometimes OS and or distribution dependent ( Super is usually the Windows key).

Some common definitions used in many computer systems are defined in the
following:
https://help.gnome.org/users/gnome-help/stable/keyboard-nav.html.en
https://help.gnome.org/users/gnome-help/stable/shell-keyboard-shortcuts.html.en
https://support.microsoft.com/en-us/windows/windows-keyboard-shortcuts-3d444b08-3a00-abd6-67da-ecfc07e86b98

Feel free to add any keyboard combinations you find that work to the wiki. Just
ask for editing privileges.

Re: [GNC] need help getting started

[Adrien Monteleone]

Eric,

Check the Help and the Tutorial (linked from the website, but should be 
available from within GnuCash). I don't recall which, but one describes 
the CSV format for importing bills/invoices.


I don't *think* you can import them as paid, because it isn't just a 
flag on the transaction. There is a link to the payment transaction as 
well that is needed. The only way I know of setting that properly, is to 
either 'Process Payment' or if the payment transaction is already 
entered (most likely in your case) then right-click and 'assign as 
payment'. (which brings up the Process Payment window with some details 
already filled out and which will link that transaction as a payment to 
that 'document')


You could maybe ask on IRC, but I don't think there is a programmatic 
way to do this at this time. (there are python bindings, however, I 
don't think they expose everything)


As for contributions, I think that info is on the website, wiki, or both.

The devs follow this list too, so one of them may see this and offer 
more definitive guidance.

Adrien

Re: [GNC] Program suddenly very slow

[David T. via gnucash-user]

John,

Thanks for the suggestions.

I haven't made any changes to my machine knowingly.

The hardware is all the same. Dell Inspiron laptop running Window 10.

Due to a number of factors, I have not accessed GnuCash for a number of 
weeks or months, so it's a little difficult for me to identify software 
changes. It's quite possible (likely, even) that Windows has pushed an 
update, or that some other app has similarly pushed an update that could 
affect operation. Apps that I know have frequent updates include: a 
couple of cloud providers that run as services, a backup software 
package that runs as a service, Google drive, and an Adobe update app. 
However, I have stopped those services and found that GnuCash still runs 
slowly. My machine currently shows 27% CPU usage in Task Manager, and I 
am seeing the same performance hit in GnuCash.


Further examination shows that the slowdown only happens when a 
transaction is committed or deleted. Autofill happens immediately. When 
a transaction is entered, the delay is on order of 2-3 seconds. If I 
delete a transaction, the delay is on order of 7 seconds. Interestingly, 
the delay here happens in two phases. The first delay (approximately 3-4 
seconds) happens when I click the Delete button in the dialog and then 
confirm the deletion; the dialog remains onscreen for this period and 
then closes. For the remaining 3 seconds delay, the register redisplays, 
and the deleted transaction remains. Then the deleted transaction clears 
out.


When I create a new book, the delays disappear.

I have looked at the trace files, and they are zero bytes in size. 
Opening them confirms that they are empty. There is a gnucash.trace.log 
file from a few days ago. It contains this (none of it seemingly relevant):


* 09:00:15 ERROR  gboolean xaccAccountIsPriced(const 
Account*): assertion 'GNC_IS_ACCOUNT(acc)' failed
* 09:01:01 ERROR  gboolean xaccAccountIsPriced(const 
Account*): assertion 'GNC_IS_ACCOUNT(acc)' failed

* 10:27:53  WARN  Could not locate file AUTHORS
* 10:27:53  WARN  Could not locate file DOCUMENTERS
* 10:27:53  WARN  Could not locate file LICENSE

Further data points: my primary data file is stored as xml. Compressed 
size is about 6MB. As an uncompressed SQLite3 file, it weighs in a 47MB. 
The file opens with the Accounts tab, one 2x2 multicolumn report, and 8 
registers. The tab sequence is: 3 register tabs, the multicolumn report, 
the Accounts tab, and five more register tabs. When switching between 
two versions of this file (the xml and sqlite3 copies), there are 
significant delays at every stage. Basic opening of the sqlite file 
takes 90+ seconds; reopening the xml file takes 30+ (I consider this 
number reasonable). Interestingly, when switching from one file to the 
next, there is a noticeable lag in opening the various tabs. 
Understandably, there is a delay when the multicolumn report loads--but 
it's odd to me that the Accounts tab takes a couple of seconds to load. 
I mention this because I do not see this behavior when I open GnuCash 
fresh with the same file opening by default. All the tabs load 
immediately (even the report tab, which seems odd to me; I'd expect a 
delay there).


I did a full check and repair, which took a very long time. I believe 
it's finished without turning up errors, but I don't know how I could 
tell that, as there doesn't appear to be any report on results. Suffice 
to say that the progress bar along the bottom no longer has any account 
information in it, and the file doesn't need saving. That suggests that 
no errors were found. (It might be useful for the Check & Repair to 
issue a report after completion BTW)


I'll keep trying things out to see if I can figure out why GC runs so 
slowly for me. If any of this suggests something to someone, I'd 
apprecaite the insight.

Re: [GNC] GST Report - not showing tax amounts

[Nora]

Hi Gnucash Users,

I'm trying to get a report that shows my last 6 months  of GST/HST amounts
for both sales and expenses.
I've used the GST report - the headings are correct - listing the
customer/vendor, base sales amount, tax on sale or purchase BUT only prints
out the sales/purchase amounts with no tax amounts???  
I'm not sure what options I need to include to show the tax amounts as well
on the report.  I need this for my GST/HST filing. Maybe there's a better
report??
 
Your assistance would be appreciated.
Thanks!

Indeed. My rule of thumb in writing documentation (gnucash as well as others) 
has always been to include things that are specific to the application/product

Thanks. That's weird. I use the same resolution with no issues. (though 
on a Mac) I'll do some Linux testing later to see what I can find.

Re: [GNC] Odd Invoice Total (Rounding Issue Maybe)

[Adrien Monteleone]

I'd file a bug, label it as 'Regression' since a change broke something 
that worked.


Be sure to indicate the version that worked and the tested versions that 
do not.


I vaguely recall some work done to 'improve' rounding due to other bugs 
around the 3.x series. I guess this slipped through or wasn't 
exposed/tested to catch it.

Adrien

I have also tried the same example in 4.10 Flatpak, and the issue

I assume that in version 2.6.17 the calculation was made in a different 
way.  I can't see any preferences that may be set differently, that may 
be able to change the behaviour.
It appears that when entering Inclusive Tax amounts, behind the scene it 
actually calculates the Exclusive amount, then adds those figures

Is there any way to get the calculation behaviour back to how it worked 
in 2.6.17?

Re: [GNC] Invoice showing balance due

[Adrien Monteleone]

There is another option:

If you already have processed a pre-payment/over-payment, the result 
will be a credit on the customer's account.


If you check the box for Preferences > Business > Invoices > 'Process 
payments on posting', then when you post the next invoice for that 
customer, GnuCash will automatically apply that credit.


If you then choose the option for the Invoice Report to 'show payments' 
you'll see the credit applied.


This saves you a few steps, but both methods work.

Adrien

Hi Group.
I am just doing some testing testing with updated versions (to me) of 
GnuCash.


I have been using GnuCash for a while on an older machine, it is 
running 2.6.17 and it is working perfectly, unfortunately the machine 
it is on is starting to have issues, so am in the process of 
migrating to a newer machine, and therefore a newer version of 
GnuCash (finally).


The issue I'm having is on a specific Invoice the TOTAL shown down 
the bottom is 1 cent out.  I could understand it if I was doing % 
discounts etc, but the invoice is very basic, and the total seems to 
be correct, until the last entry.


Invoice Details:
Date  Description  Action Quantity Unit Price 
Discount Type  Discount How  Discount   Tax Subtotal   Tax
Today    Item 1   Material   1 $1049.00   % 
<    X $953.64 $95.36
Today    Item 2   Material   1 $222.00   % 
<    X $201.82 $20.18
Today    Item 3   Material   1 $15.00   % 
<    X       $13.64 $1.36
Today    Item 4   Material   1 $30.00   % 
<    X       $27.27 $2.73
Today    Item 5   Material   1 $59.15   % 
<    X   $53.77 $5.38
Today    Item 6   Project     1 $200.00   % 
<    X $181.82 $18.18


The Discount Type and Discount How, are just the prepopulated values 
and are not used as there is no Discount amount.


The TOTAL at the bottom left of the Invoice entry screen is correct 
until adding the last entry, where it then shows: $1,575.16 instead 
of the expected $1,575.15.


I have tried adding in the Invoice details to a new Invoice, and 
using two different versions of GnuCash, both seem to show the same 
behaviour.  Are there any suggestions as to why this may be 
happening, and how to fix it?  It is not very comforting that what 
appears to be a simple Invoice, with not discounts etc, is added up 
wrong.  If I change the Item 5 entry to $59.14 I correctly get 
$1,575.14.  But once again changing the Item 5 to $59.15 gives a 
Total of $1,575.16.

Re: [GNC] Invoice showing balance due

[Ryan Carver]

David,

I just stumbled through this issue as well.  I was able to get a $2,000
customer credit to show as a payment on a new invoice by doing the
following steps:

1) create new invoice and post to A/R.
2) select new invoice and make payment.
3) when the payment window opens select the outstanding credit plus the
new invoice amount.
4) in the payment amount section enter $0.00.  This should apply the
credit to the new invoice.
5) print new invoice.  When printing new invoice select the Options tab
then Diplay tab and make sure "payments" are selected to print.
6) print new invoice as PDF and verify the customer credit was applied

Hope this helps.

After you post you need to Process Payment to attach the credit.
Unfortunately GnuCash no longer auto-applies credits.

Too bad. So I have to edit the printed invoice manually to indicate the

Looks like a rounding issue when using inclusive tax.

The latest GnuCash is 4.10. You can get a .deb for it in the Debian

The Discount Type and Discount How, are just the prepopulated values and 
are not used as there is no Discount amount.


The TOTAL at the bottom left of the Invoice entry screen is correct 
until adding the last entry, where it then shows:  $1,575.16 instead of 
the expected $1,575.15.


I have tried adding in the Invoice details to a new Invoice, and using 
two different versions of GnuCash, both seem to show the same 
behaviour.  Are there any suggestions as to why this may be happening, 
and how to fix it?  It is not very comforting that what appears to be a 
simple Invoice, with not discounts etc, is added up wrong.  If I change 
the Item 5 entry to $59.14 I correctly get $1,575.14.  But once again 
changing the Item 5 to $59.15 gives a Total of $1,575.16.

Re: [GNC] Balance Sheet mismatch

[Adrien Monteleone]

If I recall correctly, there is a known limitation of the current 
Balance Sheet with respect to multiple currencies.


I also recall there is only one price option that 'works', mostly, but I 
don't recall which one it is. (I thought it was 'nearest' but not certain)


There are older threads on this topic.

Also check bugs.gnucash.org

Regards,
Adrien

I have made a test file with just two transactions:
   Opening Balance in GBP on 3/13/2011
   xfer and convert to USD 1/1/2016
So, those two transactions put two entries in the Price database for GBP.
I then added a third price between those two dates on 1/11/2013
The Balance Sheet shows a mismatch if run on 1/11/2013 or any date after
that date
but is OK if run on 1/10/2013 or any date earlier
The value of the GBP (reported in USD) is changing in the Assets section of
the report,
but the Equity section is remaining constant.
Should the Equity section show an Unrealized gain/loss?
This looks like a bug to me.  I am not sure how to report, or what is
needed.
The test2.gnucash file is around 5000 bytes small
Now sure where the Price history is kept, nor the Report options.

[GNC] Switching from Quickbooks and getting started

[flywire]

Two things you need to consider before deciding to switch:
1) classes are not supported and the workarounds won't do grouping for
reports (ie list all transactions ordered by workaround for class)
2) with cash accounting there is no automatic tax (GST, sales tax, VAT
etc), it only works with accrual accounting

Further to the advice from Jim DeLaHunt, if you actually enter the
transactions in the GnuCash Tutorial and Concepts Guide sections Getting
Started and Managing Personal Finances you'll learn a lot more, and the
switch will be fairly straightforward once you work out how to get your
data loaded. Managing Business Finances (ie accrual accounting) has brief
examples but they are unrelated and do not form a tutorial.

[GNC] Odd Invoice Total (Rounding Issue Maybe)

[Jeff]

Hi Group.
I am just doing some testing testing with updated versions (to me) of 
GnuCash.


I have been using GnuCash for a while on an older machine, it is running 
2.6.17 and it is working perfectly, unfortunately the machine it is on 
is starting to have issues, so am in the process of migrating to a newer 
machine, and therefore a newer version of GnuCash (finally).


The issue I'm having is on a specific Invoice the TOTAL shown down the 
bottom is 1 cent out.  I could understand it if I was doing % discounts 
etc, but the invoice is very basic, and the total seems to be correct, 
until the last entry.


Invoice Details:
Date  Description  Action Quantity Unit Price Discount 
Type  Discount How  Discount   Tax Subtotal   Tax
Today    Item 1   Material   1 $1049.00   % 
<    X $953.64    $95.36
Today    Item 2   Material   1 $222.00   % 
<    X $201.82    $20.18
Today    Item 3   Material   1 $15.00   % 
<    X       $13.64 $1.36
Today    Item 4   Material   1 $30.00   % 
<    X       $27.27 $2.73
Today    Item 5   Material   1 $59.15   % 
<    X   $53.77 $5.38
Today    Item 6   Project     1 $200.00   % 
<    X $181.82 $18.18


The Discount Type and Discount How, are just the prepopulated values and 
are not used as there is no Discount amount.


The TOTAL at the bottom left of the Invoice entry screen is correct 
until adding the last entry, where it then shows:  $1,575.16 instead of 
the expected $1,575.15.
