Re: gnu cash v 2.6.19 on Mac OS X 10.13.3

[Adrien Monteleone]

Dan,


You’re seeing that for the following reason:

The account you currently have highlighted is NOT an income/expense account.

Gnucash defaults to creating a new account as a sub account of the one which is 
currently selected.

Select either the main expense account, or a sub-account of expenses and you’ll 
see Income & Expense as the only options.

If you do this with other account types, you won’t see Income or Expense listed.


Regards,
Adrien

[Dan Carpenter]

Thank you Dave H. for your quick response.

The Account Type display box shows only:  Bank, Cash, Asset, Credit Card, 
Liability, Stock, Mutual Fund, A/Receivable and A/Payable.  

“Expense" and “Income" are NOT showing up in the Account Type box.  That is my 
question.  How do I fix that?




kind regards, Dan

select "Expense" in Account Type listbox and click OK to create a top level

Re: Gnu Cash Starts With The File Needing Saved 2.6.18

[Greg Feneis]

OK, looks like Gnu Cash does some checking and repairs to the file and its
contents as it's being loaded.  If it makes a change, then the contents
changed indication would appear and the save button would be enabled.  That
makes sense.

The last version I used before 2.6.18 was 2.6.17.  I don't remember this
happening before, but I just may not have noticed it.

Thanks for the helps

but confirmed for me by John Ralls that GnuCash does a bit of housekeeping

if I can will post a link to it.  What version was your previous file that

Let's get clear about what you are and are not seeing. If I am wrong 
interpreting what you are trying to describe, say so.


I am taking what you describe when starting gnucash is that it opens a 
file where you DO see all of the accounts you expect to see, but when 
you ask it to open an account, you don't see the transactions you expect 
to see.


Things to check:
a) Is this the right file that was opened? You should see its name 
displayed. Remember, you data is NOT "in the program" but in data files 
(you can have several, one program (gnucash) being used to keep 
different books.


b) If it is the right file, check that there are no date range filters 
in effect. For example, if you were (accidentally) asking gnucash to 
show you just 2018 on you would not expect to see any transactions.

Re: GNU Cash Transactions - Wiped Out

Roy,

What is the name of your data file and where do you have it stored?  If all
the accounts are devoid of transactions, are they all present?

Did you look for the backups that are mentioned in the online FAQs?
