Hi, I decided to spend some time this weekend on a simple dialog to help you zero-ize your income and expense accounts. I've come up with a dialog that effective looks like this (please excuse the ASCII Art but I don't want to have to write the code to actually fill in the dialog yet):
+---------------------------------------------+ | | | +------------------------+ | | Close Date: | 12/31/2007 <| | | +------------------------+ | | +------------------------+ | | Income Total: | Equity:Retained E| New | | | +------------------------+ | | +------------------------+ | | Expense Total: | Equity:Retained E| New | | | +------------------------+ | | | | +--------+ +--------+ +----+ | | | Help | | Cancel | | OK | | | +--------+ +--------+ +----+ | +--------------------------------------------- Is there anything else needed for this? The idea is that it would iterate over all Income accounts and put the account balance summary as of [Date] as a single transaction to the [Income Total] account.. Repeat the process for Expense accounts and put it into the [Expense Total] account. Any quick feedback would be useful. Please follow-up to gnucash-devel (I've set up the headers so that direct replies to this message SHOULD go there).
