Hi, One last question about beancount, then I'll stay off the list for a while :).
I understand that I can create whatever commodities I want and then assign them a cost, for example: 2014-07-09 price VACHR 38.46 USD ; Equiv. $80,000 year But is there a way that I can invert this, and then view my expense list (or a tagged group of expenses) in another unit? Specifically, I'd like to create a commodity: 2014-07-09 price USD 1/307.68 WORKDAY ; 80k=307/day. 2014-07-09 price USD 0.025 VACHR ; if VACHR = ~40 USD, then USD = 1/40 VACHR Then, I'd like to see how many days or weeks (in vacation days or USD) I spent in my Expense:Foo account or #some-vacation tag? I think the answer is "not yet", but it will exist when this ticket is closed: https://bitbucket.org/blais/beancount/issues/103/make-the-balance-sheet-and-income I'm still not clear on all the features in beancount, so I'm asking here just in case this is implemented. FYI, I read the long thread on the reason for the docs in google docs. Overall it seems like a net pro, but one issue not mentioned is that google doesn't seem to index google docs. When I google for "gnucash X" I get a clear page of text about feature X. That is not the case with beancount. -k. -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Beancount" group.
