already been created 12 months in advance. I.e. he wants to update the
created tens based on an updated template after the fact.

Re: [GNC] "Make PDF" button just prints

2024-01-16 Thread john
No. Gtk does its own drawing at a very low level using a library called Cairo. 
Cairo gets a buffer from the OS and puts a bitmap in it and the OS displays the 
bitmap. A PDF created from the bitmap would be a screenshot, not the complete 
document.

Re: [GNC] Enhancement: Future sched txn update if updated template.

2024-01-16 Thread Adrien Monteleone
You can use variables, thus if you alter your templates to use an 
inflation multiplier, you future proof the template. GnuCash will prompt 
you for that variable value each time the SX fires. Simply enter your 
new multiplier as desired.

If Win7 is still supported by GnuCash as a target, then I can see 
keeping it, but Win10+ has had Print to PDF built-in by default.


Would it be possible to change the button to 'print' to that device on

Re: [GNC] Deferred Income << the general case is "imputed income"

While Deferred Income wasn't tracked along the way, I'll set up the 
account with the present total as an opening balance and have them 
transfer against that each distribution. 


That's a reasonable solution.

I'd do it under equity. You can create for them there an account with a 
name like "deferred income". Presumably when you started the books for 
them, the other side of the transaction(*) entering the IRA balance as 
an asset was equity. All you would be doing now would be to "partition" 
equity transferring the remaining IRA balance form undifferentiated 
equity to ":deferred income:.


Then as distributions are taken, the debits would be bank account and 
deferred income and the credits the IRA balance and income 
(current/taxable income)


While this isn't necessary, could just debit equity, if you have the 
deferred income separated out it SHOWS. I'd certainly want my balance 
sheet to show that some of my net worth has a tax liability associated 
with it.


Michael D Novack

* If you used the "starting balance" tool no explicit transaction.

It's part of CSV import. It has been there for a long time but didn't work very

Use File>Export>Transactions to CSV to create a CSV file then 
File>Import>Import Transactions from CSV and click the Multi-Split box under

I was wondering 
is it really necessary to create a separate deferred income account when 
you could just do a transaction report on your IRA account to see how 
much distribution you had in a year or a month?  -- JC

Re: [GNC] Posting of Dividend through Stock Assist

2024-01-16 Thread Paras Desai
Thanks John for your prompt feedback.

Yes, I am posting it manually. Only down side is that i can not assign this 
income to that specific Mutual fund account and hence it does not reflects in 
Advance Portfolio Report, I guess.

Of course, this is not the big deal.

With my regards

Paras.

That's not a scenario that's coded into the stock assistant so you'll have to 
enter it manually. Since dividend payments are presumably periodic it sounds 
like a good candidate for a scheduled transaction.

The only good reason I have found for using a VM is to allow me to run
old versions of Windows (XP in particular) in a relatively 'safe'
environment such that they won't get invaded/corrupted by intruders.

In my case now the only remaining thing that runs on my XP virtual
machine is some Epson scanner software.

Otherwise it's almost always easier to do things on a 'real' machine,
the virtual machine environment just introduces another layer of
possible issues.

Yes of course, and you will get a 1099 for the distribution so you would 
be able to do your taxes using that.


But we are keeping books. The situation is different for those of us 
where money is still coming in to our IRA's or 401k's. Think for just a 
moment how you would be recording your salary as it came in. PART of 
what you are getting, both your contribution and the employer's match is 
NOT going to be reflected in your current taxable income. It is deferred 
income. You presumably DO want that reflected as adding to your net worth.


For those of us at the other end, those distributions might be a 
significant fraction of our (actual) income. If you aren't having the 
distribution showing up as (part of) income, you are likely to have 
expenses totaling more than income. You presumably do want a realistic 
Statement of Revenues and Expenses (P&L)

[GNC] Posting of Dividend through Stock Assist

2024-01-16 Thread Paras Desai

Hello,

Greetings!

I was trying to post the Dividend income from a Mutual Fund through 
Stock Assist. But I encountered an issue. I am narrating my issue as below.


When I receive the dividend, 10 % of TCS (Tax Collected at Source) is 
deducted and deposited to the Tax authority on my behalf and the 
remaining amount is paid to me. Such Tax deducted and deposited to Tax 
authority is My Tax credit and in my books of account it should reflect 
as Assets (Tax Credit)


So my posting should look like this

Dividend : Rs 1000 Cr (Income Account : Income from Dividend)

Cash : Rs 900 Dr (Asset Account : My Bank)

Tax deducted : Rs100 Dr (Asset Account : Tax Credit)

There is no expense involved in the transaction.

Now, when I try to post this transaction through Stock Assist, It offers 
me two options


1. Either I show the difference between the Dividend and Cash (which is 
Tax deducted) as expense, or I capitalize. There is no option to post 
the difference as tax credit in Assets account.


AS a result, I need to post the transaction, with manual split, but in 
that case, I'm afraid I can not show return in form of dividend income 
for the Mutual Fund Account in portfolio report.


Has anyone come across such a typical situation ?

Thanks

Paras

Re: [GNC] Feature request: Import assistant, room for big improvements

2024-01-16 Thread Kalpesh Patel
If you make a mistake or error in import, are you going back to Bayesian 
matcher to tell it that a mistake was made? Those is via 'Tools' -> 'Import 
Match Editor' navigation 
There is also 'Show matched information' check box that gives you everything on 
both sides of the transaction. If you select 'U+C' or 'C', you can also double 
click on it to give you more information on all matching transactions.

Re: [GNC] Feature request: Import assistant, room for big improvements

2024-01-16 Thread Kalpesh Patel
Use the 'Append' capabilities to keep both sets of information in the 
description firld. In the matcher window you will see a ability to check box at 
the bottom of the matches. Albeit it changes your workflows and with few import 
iteration you'll be able to keep track of both info. I wish there was per 
transaction selection rather than all or nothing deal for that import iteration.

after Geert rewrote the CSV front end but I doubt that it has changed all that 
much. I have found the Bayesian matcher works fairly well apart from a few 
specific transactions where there is insufficient information in the data 
record to correctly assign. I typically only have to manually assign may be 10 
records out of more than 50-60 records imported for my credit card account each 
month.

I haven't yet imported anything under v5.5. but will be catching up in a few 
days. Being able to edit/add data to the description and or memo fields would 
be something I would find useful too as the imported bank data often has 
limited info about what the purchase was for
