Bug ID: 486876 Summary: Show balance button on Ledger view is negative Classification: Applications Product: kmymoney Version: 5.1.3 Platform: Other OS: Linux Status: REPORTED Severity: normal Priority: NOR Component: general Assignee: kmymoney-de...@kde.org Reporter: jvap...@yahoo.com Target Milestone: --- SUMMARY When you press the show balance chart on the ledger view, it shows negative values. It could be that this is intended to work this way but I am reporting it as it was not intuitive to me why it the value was negative and why the chart showed negative values. I believe that the it would be more intuitive if the chart shows absolute values to remove any negatives. If the account is a liability - a negative value would mean that the account is overpaid - a positive value is the amount that owed on the liability If the account is an asset - a negative value would mean that the account is over drafted. - a positive value means the account has a positive balance, there is money available. This however, may only be the way I think about it. It can also make sense the way it is now, but it may help to put tool tip to help explain that the negative value on the liability is simply what is owed, not that the account has been overpaid. STEPS TO REPRODUCE 1. Open Mymoney file 2. Go to ledger for a liability account 3. Click on the show balance chart OBSERVED RESULT If the account has a balance (if liability, you still owe it), then you will see the chart dip into the negative. If the account has been over paid, it will be positive. EXPECTED RESULT If the account has a balance, it should be positive. If the account has been over paid, it should be negative, - essentially reverse the signs when it is a liability vs an asset account.
