Particularly generating and tracking all of the necessary non-cash information in a manner that would satisfy an auditor who understood what you were doing would be mind-boggling to me. I doubt that other users here have contemplated stretching GnuCash that far, and while several of us can help telling you details here and there about how parts of GnuCash work 'under the hood', you will have to do your own spadework to craft questions to ask us. That said, GnuCash is very versatile and many users have figured out ways to stretch it to do amazing things. Good luck with your ambitions. -- David Carlson _______________________________________________ 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.
