Hi all, Bearing in mind I may not have set my system up correctly, I am posting some observations on the vendor posting to see if I can amend how I currently process my invoices or if it requires some code tweaking.
I am using GC Business to track costs on the new house I am building. I am not invoicing, only posting vendor bills and have set up about 40 vendors on the system. Each one has an a/c payable in their name as a sub -account of an account called 15rsb accounts payable (15rsb being the project name). POSTING When I post the bill, I cannot see the account payable it is going into as the window is not wide enough to show all of: 15rsb accounts payable: supplier name So every time I have to extend the window to the right. First question, how do I set the default window size for this and any other window I would like to amend please? The drop down of suppliers is easy to see and is listed alphabetically (after the 15rsb accounts payable: prefix). PAYMENT PROCESSING When it comes to processing the payment, the same issue arises with the dialog box window size so I cannot see what (if anything) is auto-selected. When I enter the vendor, even though I have posted previous bills to them and a link established, the a/c payable account for the vendor is not auto-selected. Worse still, when I try to select the vendor, the list is not alphabetical but listed in the order they were generated making it difficult to locate the account I want. Great as a memory exercise as I get older but a bit of a pain when I am in a hurry. Also, If I am in the register for a particular sub account and try to assign a payment the window opens and selects the a/c payable account, but not the vendor. When I enter the vendor, the ac payable account disappears and I have to select it again (from the non alphabetical listing). NEW BILL ICON In a standard register (say, bank account) the toolbar has an icon for a new invoice (which I do not use). Is it possible to replace it with an icon for a New Bill or just add a further icon for the New Bill? If so how? I cannot find any way of adjusting the visible tool bars (and perhaps there is no way to do it for a very good reason I am unaware of). I am not complaining. I think the software is wonderful and am grateful for the time people have put into it. These comments are shared to see if there is a solution for my situation and as feedback from a user. _______________________________________________ gnucash-user mailing list gnucash-user@gnucash.org To update your subscription preferences or to unsubscribe: https://lists.gnucash.org/mailman/listinfo/gnucash-user ----- Please remember to CC this list on all your replies.
