Re: [GNC] monthly balance report
You could do a Multi-Column report. Place an Account Summary report in one section with just your selected accounts. Place a Transaction Report in another section, again, with selected accounts, sort by Account as PrimaryKey, and play with the Display tab to remove clutter as desired. Then save that report configuration. Next time you run it, you only need to update the date range in the General tabs for each section. As for layout, you can use two columns, or one column with two sections one on top of the other.

While I agree that 4.01, 4.02, ... 4.10, 4.11, 4.12 would be more rational, in fact it is traditional or at least extremely common in version numbering to use: 4.1, 4.2,... 4.9, 4.10, 4.11, 4.12 etc. In fact, 4.01 would have different implications about the nature of the release than 4.1. 4.01 would likely be a bug fix on 4.0 rather than a new release with more major changes.

Re: [GNC] getting price quotes
Alphavantage is now the default, and you have to get a free ID to use the service (there is information regarding how to acquire an ID). Be aware, though -- Alphavantage adds a one-minute delay for each set of five stocks you update. (That is, five stocks will take seconds, but six stocks will take over a minute). I changed to what David suggested for my stock updates. I would prefer to have Multiple, but not use Alphavantage, but that doesn't seem to be an option at present.

Re: [GNC] Should one use Accounts Payable if a vendor is paid immediately ?
I also do what Andren does, but I do see your point. However, I find that GnuCash remembers previous entries, and suggests them, so once I have entered "Some Vendor", once I get to whatever is unique (So, perhaps), it prompts for the entire name. This helps keep the vendor names consistent.

Re: [GNC] can't create a transaction report
This brings up a good point; perhaps GnuCash should always use two-digit numbering; instead of 4.1, 4.2,... 4.9, 4.10, 4.11, use 4.01, 4.02,... and so on.

Re: [GNC] Should one use Accounts Payable if a vendor is paid immediately ?
I was about to reply the same. I've never had an issue in many years of using GnuCash because I start typing a Payee/Payor and Autofill keeps my fingers/brain from flubbing the remainder. If Autofill appears to not be 'responding' as I type someone I've entered many times before, that's a sure sign I've got a typo in the first 2–3 letters, so I can fix it before proceeding. Of course, go ahead and raise a bill. There's no rule against it. The OP was about a quicker method. Regular transactions are the only option. (with caveats) Regards, Adrien On 11/28/22 6:31 AM, Maf.

Re: [GNC] can't create a transaction report
That's normal. You are 'installing' it, correct? That is, opening the .dmg you downloaded, then dragging and dropping the GnuCash icon to your /Applications folder, then running it from /Applications or via Launchpad or your Dock. (you will likely have to open it twice, the first time is just to tell Gatekeeper the app is safe, after that it should take only one-click to launch) Since you were already using GnuCash on your Mac, I could guess you did so, but it doesn't hurt to ask and verify.

The trouble with that is that the text fields aren't validated. It's fine if you never, ever, make a typo; but I'm not perfect. If I make a typo in an account name, I know it immediately and can fix it. But if I mistype "Some Vendor" as "SomeVendor" or "Some Vendoir" I may not notice, and then any report that filters on Description will be incomplete.
