Re: [GNC] Billing terms / payment due x days from the end of the month
If using the Business Features and raising Bills for that Vendor, then set up terms either in the Vendor, or per Bill. (there is a separate Terms editor) When you first create the Bill, if that Vendor has set terms, that will be populated by default, otherwise you can set it in that initial dialog. Upon posting a Bill, when you enter the posting date, GnuCash will automatically calculate the Due Date. (which will be greyed out and cannot be edited) - If not using Bills for this, create a Scheduled Transaction (SX) with the proper timing and a generic template transaction. For amounts, use a term as a variable. It would be a good idea to use the options to Remind in Advance, Review before Creation. I wouldn't use auto-creation for this one. When the SX fires as it is due, you'll see a prompt for your variable, which would be the amount owed. On the Since Last Run dialog, be sure to check the box to Review if it isn't checked. When you commit the transactions there, it will show a register view of any and all SXs that were just created. You can then adjust any as needed, such as this one, with specific notes, or line-item detail. - Personally, I'd take the Bill route here, but both can work.

Re: [GNC] GnuCash 4.900 Released
Hi John, First, thank you to you and the team for the development! It is very much appreciated! I was able to test 4.900 on a Windows 10 machine. Here are some bugs I have noticed so far. If you want these in Bugzilla I can put them there as well: 1. The tip of the day cannot be turned off. Unchecking "Show tips at startup" and in Preferences > General is ignored 2. "Manage document link" is missing the keyboard shortcut. It has always been the letter "M". 3. Pressing the ALT key does not show the keyboard shortcut letters as before. However, if you open a menu, press, ALT, and wiggle the mouse in the menu they will appear. I had to go back to v4.13 as the keyboard shortcuts are a must for me as I use them for macros.

For general information... I installed Gnucash 4.900 from the .dmg file on MacOS Ventura 13.1. I created a new file for a project that is starting fresh this year. I haven't done much more with it yet than created accounts in two currencies with a starting balance in one of them. No issues have arisen so far, but it isn't much of a test yet.

Re: [GNC] ASSETS
Thank you Michael for your reply it is a GNU question... We are a small club and a couple of assets were missed in the "brought forward balance" when starting with this App a couple of years ago, so they are listed in the balance sheet. We haven't depreciated them as this is noted in our EoY. It acts as a list of equipment at he same time. When I put them in the Equipment A/c it does a CR and DR at the same time which I don't want.

You need to refer to the rules of your jurisdiction/ By the account named (Equipment Assets) I assume that these are probably "fixed assets" that are depreciated annually. You say 'cost nothing" so I assume that means literally (cost nothing to acquire) or already fully depreciated. In MY jurisdiction these would come onto the (new) books at zero value. Yes, they might have residual real value in the sense that they could be sold for something. But if and when that happens, the "profit" (sale price - basic cost + depreciation since acquisition) would be a capital gain. You would not "mark to market" << in your main/legal books >> as this gain is still imaginary/conditional/hasn't happened yet an maybe never will. HOWEVER -- there is a special case situation where your "legal" economic state (according to your jurisdiction) is very different from your actual economic state because some assets have greatly more value than the jurisdiction recognizes. In that case, perhaps a second set of virtual books that have no legal standing. This does not require total duplication of effort as this second set of books need only have a few accounts and these adjusted only annually, etc. It's not JUST assets the jurisdiction doesn't recognize but possibly also expenses paid on your behalf that the jurisdiction doesn't consider income. The purpose of accounting is financial INFORMATION including the ability to compare "what ifs" and without being able to take into account things like this you couldn't, for example, compare two job alternatives, one with and one without a large amount of such "percs" Michael D Novack. ___ gnucash-user mailing list gnucash-user@gnucash.org To update your subscription preferences or to unsubscribe: https://lists.gnucash.org/mailman/listinfo/gnucash-user - Please remember to CC this list on all your replies.

Have you considered using a Google spreadsheet along with:

GOOGLEFINANCE("NASDAQ:GOOG","price",TODAY()-30,TODAY())
It lets you get the prices on a range of dates.

In other words, what you are used to thinking of as the operating system is really the sole windows manager that comes bundled with your operating system. You are not directly interacting with the operating system itself. IF you work at the command line you are working closer to the operating system, but even then there is a "shell language" involved. It is different for the 'nix users because they usually have a wide choice of windows managers available to them and they tend to be passionate about their favorite windows manager. For you to get a sense of that, the appearance, etc. of these different windows managers can be much farther apart than say Windows vs Mac OS. So what Anne is saying here is that she can get it working under the windows manager "gnome" but not under "mate" and she doesn't like :gnome". This is typical of linux users, to have such a very strong preference for one over another.

Re: [GNC] "Get Quotes" from the price database feedback
Hi Geoff - Appreciate that pointer. I am familiar with that post but I consider that out-of-band way of getting quotes -- not ideal. I have a Python script that does that way but more so I was more like interested in understanding how the "Get Quotes" ties with the Perl scripts and wanted to see if I can make changes to the Perl script to possibly download say last 5 days of quotes so that I do not have to go through multiple work flows to get that data nor do I need to fire up GNC (no offense; it is a great software) on daily basis. -Original Message- From: Geoff Sent: Monday, January 09, 2023 5:25 PM To: Kalpesh Patel ; gnucash-user@gnucash.org Subject: Re: [GNC] "Get Quotes" from the price database feedback Hi Kalpesh > Also is there a way to tell to get limited historical range of days' > worth > of quotes rather than a single day?

Re: [GNC] GnuCash 4.900 Released
Note also this release will perform a one-time change to the internal representation of budget amounts to fix a class of bugs. The budget amounts will hopefully be more stable and reliable, and reflect the reverse balanced accounts global preference closely. Beta testers are needed to verify the behaviour of the budget editor and reports.
