Hi team, I have a vague recollection something like this happened a few years ago but it was just a display issue, restarting gnucash would display the seemingly missing manually added currency conversion rate.
However with v4.2, I'm actually seeing the added conversion rate for the end-of-financial-quarter date being lost after a restart of gnucash. What's more conversions in reports with settings "nearest" are now pulling in an entry from a different date (since the eofq date has disappeared), so the reports' numbers have changed between gnucash sessions! Eek! Procedure: Example report: Balance Sheet, options -> commodities -> Price Sourcec: Nearest in time and tick "Show Foreign Currencies" and "Show Exchange Rates". Line item for Paypal-USD reads: US$898.50 A$1,1239.99 (= exchange rate of 1.380067, presumably taken from an existing 10 Oct 2020 Price Database entry 1.380063) Define exchange rate for end-of-financial-quarter: Tools -> Price Database -> Currencies -> USD (US Dollar) -> Add -> Namespace: Currencies Security: USD (US Dollar) Currency: AUD (Australian Dollar) Date: 30/09/20 Type: Last Price: 1.39638 OK Reload Balance Sheet Report: Line item for Paypal-USD now reads: US$898.50 A$1,254.65 (= exchange rate of 1.396383 matching the 30 Sep 2020 entry we manually put into Price Database) So far so good. Exit gnucash. Re-enter gnucash. Line item for Paypal-USD now reverted to: US$898.50 A$1,1239.99 Price Database entry for 30 Sep 2020 now missing (even after sorting on date column)! Report number changed over gnucash restart! Anyone else seeing this? Config details: Running Ubuntu 20.04.1 LTS on x64.
