Adrien, >From what little I know of the automatic gains/loss calculations by default the gain or loss on a transaction is created in an Orphan-Gains-CCC account by default and the user has to reassign the gain or loss to an appropriate income account.
See https://www.gnucash.org/docs/v3/C/gnucash-guide/invest-sell1.html#invest-sellAutoExample in the Tutorial and Concepts Guide for a description of how the Scrub function works. The transaction is balanced by the split into the Orphan-Gains-CCC account, which is not a true income account as such in the account heirarchy but is used so the procedure has a defined target. From Section 9.7.3.10 covering the scrub function which covers automatic generation of the required splits the user is then instructed to proceed to Section 9.7.3.6 where it describes reassignment of the Orphan-Gains-CCC account to the appropriate Income account. Here the CCC refers to the specific currency associated with the asset security account where trading is in multiple currencies so foa a trade in Austraian dollars it would be AUD or USD if the trade was in US dollars David ----- David Cousens -- Sent from: http://gnucash.1415818.n4.nabble.com/GnuCash-User-f1415819.html _______________________________________________ gnucash-user mailing list gnucash-user@gnucash.org To update your subscription preferences or to unsubscribe: https://lists.gnucash.org/mailman/listinfo/gnucash-user If you are using Nabble or Gmane, please see https://wiki.gnucash.org/wiki/Mailing_Lists for more information. ----- Please remember to CC this list on all your replies.
