I took your report from here:

https://lists.gnucash.org/pipermail/gnucash-user/2018-March/075748.html

and put it into ~/.gnucash on my Linux machine.

Moreover, I've the following line:

(load (gnc-build-dotgnucash-path "ytd-budget.scm"))

in my ~/.gnucash/config.user

and the report is not visible nor I get anything in the terminal despite
launching Gnu cash with:

$ gnucash --debug --log gnc.scm=debug

Any hint?

Let me say that I have several years of data in Gnucash (since Nov 2010,
but recently moved to (h)ledger due to Budgeting/ Forecasting features
(https://github.com/simonmichael/hledger/wiki/Budgeting%20and%20forecasting)
- there is '--cumulative' switch for budgets and I believe that your
report does provide same/simialčr feature to do envelope budgeting.

Moreover, entering data, recurring transactions, reconciling etc. are
all quicker and/or more convenient in GC that with #plaintextaccounting
apps, so I'm eager to go back to GC, if possible.


Sincerely,
Gour

I have windows 10 home. I tried to install your software that I downloaded
thursdau and again yesterdat. I tried running the install as administrator
and again not as admin. The install freezes at this point (I can do other
tasks so I know the computer isn't frozen.  Also after I end the task, the
foreground is killed but there is still what must be a background task
running. Here is where the install freezes.

Re: Budgeting loans

I use a split transaction for my mortgage payment that takes care of
principle, interest, and escrow all at once.

I haven't used the budgeting feature yet, but I use both expenses and cash
flow reports to get a mostly complete financial review every month.

 We're using 14.04 for one of the CI builds, so you shouldn't have any 
 trouble. You might want to examine 
 https://github.com/Gnucash/gnucash/blob/unstable/util/ci/ubuntu-14.04-docker
  
 
 to copy the packages you need to install.

For your personal use, no effect at all. It just means that some types of files 
don’t have their translatable strings extracted into the message catalog. That 
affects only translators working from git instead of a tarball.

fixed field width

2018-04-07 Thread Dennis West
I'm wondering if any of the developers would consider adding the "Notes" 
field to the single line display.  I much prefer the single line display 
but hate to give up the Notes field.  As you can see from the 
attachment, the Description field takes up way more than is necessary 
and there is plenty of room to add the Notes field.


Thanks for all you hard work.

Re: Finance::Quote Yahoo_JSON Alpha Vantage

2018-04-07 Thread Chris Good
Hi Paul,

Recent versions of Finance::Quote use Alpha Vantage for currency (exchange 
rate) quotes instead of yahoo. Mike Alexander's mod to Quote.pm puts a 1 second 
sleep between each call to Alpha Vantage for currency quotes.

The link still works for me - maybe you have to paste the link into a browser?

RE: GnuCash 2.6.20 Released

2018-04-07 Thread Ken Pyzik
John

Running Windows 10 version 1803.  Upgraded to GNUCash 3.0 from 2.6.19.  No 
issues - everything looks good. Thanks! 

Reports run much faster now.  Cleaner looking interface (not sure if the fonts 
changed or what -- but appears much clearer and crisper. )  Nice enhancements.  
Running now for a couple of hours -- no issues.  Thanks again!

Subject: GnuCash 2.6.20 Released

The GnuCash development team announces GnuCash 2.6.20, the twenty-first and 
final maintenance release in the 2.6-stable series. Note: This is the last 
version of GnuCash that will support MacOS X versions earlier than 10.9 or 
Microsoft Windows versions earlier than Windows 7.
Changes

Between 2.6.19 and 2.6.20, the following bugfixes were accomplished:

* Bug 765846 - Expense Over Time for subaccounts: An error occurred while 
running the report: Fix crash if acc-depth too low.
* Bug 791848 - GC 2.6.x does not handle ISO dates introduced with GC 2.7 
Enable reading ISO-formatted dates, recognize GNC_FEATURE_SQLITE3_ISO_DATES.
* Bug 792008 - gnucash 2.6.19 fails to build Replace g_assert_true with 
g_assert for now
* Bug 793278 - wrong data in charts with accumulated values (like 
"net-linechart", "net-barchart" and "liabilities barchart")
* Bug 794030 - relative date functions compute wrong day of month
* Bug 790526 - Mathematical bug This change will fix 
'num-of-weeks-since-1/jan/1970' which formerly used quotient to remove the 
fractional part of the division. For negative values of num-of-weeks, the 
number is truncated in the wrong direction (i.e. towards 0). This change uses 
floor instead to ensure the num-of-weeks found is the nearest integer LESS than 
the fractional number.

Some other fixes not associated with reported bugs:

* Online HBCI actions: Remove outdated non-SEPA menu items.
* Add XML namespaces for all Account Hierarchy Templates.
* General cleanup of Account Hierarchy Templates.
* Fix auto-selection of splits in reconcile. Really use all splits of any 
given day. Up to now usually the splits of the given date were not or not all 
included, as the time comparison didn't correctly ignore any given time-of-day 
of the splits. Instead, all possible time-of-days should be included.
* Properly detect git in case of linked worktree.
* Account Hierarchy for India: Set LANGUAGE=hi and LANG=en_IN to access it.
* Improve Import menu entries Customer & vendors use same menu label as 
others, replace template by tooltip, add ellipsis to entry, add comments to 
distinguish "Import" as verb and substantive.
* Provide preference panel to set the Alpha Vantage API key needed for 
Finance::Quote.
* Correct the appstream definition to match the current spec.
* Fix collectors and min-date handling in reports.

Translation Updates: Dutch, German, Spanish, Russian

Important update notification

If you are updating from gnucash 2.6.0-2.6.4 on linux, you are advised to 
remove the guile user cache or several parts of gnucash may fail to work 
properly. This user cache can be found in .cache/guile/ccache/2.0-LE-8-2.0/ in 
your home directory. It's safe to remove the whole contents of this directory.

Note .cache is a hidden folder in your home directory. You may have to change 
your file manager's settings in order to view hidden files and folders.
Documentation

Concurrent with the release of Gnucash 2.6.20 we're pleased to also release a 
new version 2.6.20 of the companion Help and Tutorial and Concepts Guide.

* Bug 782423 - Help 10.2. Setting Preferences is outdated.

gnucash 3.0 installation

2018-04-07 Thread James Russell Kuyper Jr.
I'm trying to build gnucash 3.0 on a machine running Ubuntu Linux 16.04,
following the instructions provided at
.
I had no problems until I got down to the step which says:

cmake -D CMAKE_INSTALL_PREFIX=/gnucash-cmake -D
WITH_AQBANKING=OFF -D WITH_OFX=OFF ../gnucash

I'm not entirely clear what  should be. I looked an found that
my current version off GnuCash, 2.6.5, was installed at
/usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/gnucash. I removed that version, and used the
following command, with the following results:

Budget Flow report does not respect Reversed Balanced Accounts Setting

2018-04-07 Thread simonpeter
Hi,

I am using version 2.6.19 on Windows 10 64 Bit.

My Reversed Balanced Accounts settings is Credit Accounts.

When I view my income in the accounts tab, it is correctly showing a
positive balance of £10.07. When I switch to the Reversed Balanced Accounts
setting of "None" then the balance shows as -£10.07. So far, so good. 

However, no matter what the Reversed Balanced Account setting is, the Budget
Flow Report is showing -£10.07 rather than +£10.07.

A note a previous post from 12 months ago indicating that there was a bug
that caused this behaviour, but the bug had been fixed. Yet here I am with a
more recent version of Gnucash and the same issue. 

Any ideas?

Thanks in advance!

There may be room the way you use your screen and Gnucash, but I wouldn't.
So I have some account tabs double line and some single line.

Running Windows 10 version 1803.  Upgraded to GNUCash 3.0 from 2.6.19.  No

Reports run much faster now.  Cleaner looking interface (not sure if the fonts

Running now for a couple of hours -- no issues.  Thanks again!

Subject: GnuCash 2.6.20 Released

The GnuCash development team announces GnuCash 2.6.20, the twenty-first and 
final maintenance release in the 2.6-stable series. Note: This is the last 
version of GnuCash that will support MacOS X versions earlier than 10.9 or 
Microsoft Windows versions earlier than Windows 7.
Changes

Between 2.6.19 and 2.6.20, the following bugfixes were accomplished:

* Bug 765846 - Expense Over Time for subaccounts: An error occurred while 
running the report: Fix crash if acc-depth too low.
* Bug 791848 - GC 2.6.x does not handle ISO dates introduced with GC 2.7 
Enable reading ISO-formatted dates, recognize GNC_FEATURE_SQLITE3_ISO_DATES.
* Bug 792008 - gnucash 2.6.19 fails to build Replace g_assert_true with 
g_assert for now
* Bug 793278 - wrong data in charts with accumulated values (like 
"net-linechart", "net-barchart" and "liabilities barchart")
* Bug 794030 - relative date functions compute wrong day of month
* Bug 790526 - Mathematical bug This change will fix 
'num-of-weeks-since-1/jan/1970' which formerly used quotient to remove the 
fractional part of the division. For negative values of num-of-weeks, the 
number is truncated in the wrong direction (i.e. towards 0). This change uses 
floor instead to ensure the num-of-weeks found is the nearest integer LESS than 
the fractional number.

Some other fixes not associated with reported bugs:

* Online HBCI actions: Remove outdated non-SEPA menu items.
* Add XML namespaces for all Account Hierarchy Templates.
* General cleanup of Account Hierarchy Templates.
* Fix auto-selection of splits in reconcile. Really use all splits of any 
given day. Up to now usually the splits of the given date were not or not all 
included, as the time comparison didn't correctly ignore any given time-of-day 
of the splits. Instead, all possible time-of-days should be included.
* Properly detect git in case of linked worktree.
* Account Hierarchy for India: Set LANGUAGE=hi and LANG=en_IN to access it.
* Improve Import menu entries Customer & vendors use same menu label as 
others, replace template by tooltip, add ellipsis to entry, add comments to 
distinguish "Import" as verb and substantive.
* Provide preference panel to set the Alpha Vantage API key needed for 
Finance::Quote.
* Correct the appstream definition to match the current spec.
* Fix collectors and min-date handling in reports.

Translation Updates: Dutch, German, Spanish, Russian

Important update notification

If you are updating from gnucash 2.6.0-2.6.4 on linux, you are advised to 
remove the guile user cache or several parts of gnucash may fail to work 
properly. This user cache can be found in .cache/guile/ccache/2.0-LE-8-2.0/ in 
your home directory. It's safe to remove the whole contents of this directory.

Note .cache is a hidden folder in your home directory. You may have to change 
your file manager's settings in order to view hidden files and folders.
Documentation

Concurrent with the release of Gnucash 2.6.20 we're pleased to also release a 
new version 2.6.20 of the companion Help and Tutorial and Concepts Guide.

* Bug 782423 - Help 10.2. Setting Preferences is outdated.
* Changing text in Help to reflect changes in Preferences dialogs.
* Translation of the german guides metafile

I have used that approach for some years, but am interested in the new

Thank you Liz😊

Commonly, list prefixes are in square brackets to be more unique and make it 
clear it's a prefix.

Any chance of changing them to [GNC] etc?

Please, do not. That is Computer Ice Age.

The easiest and most unique way to filter is by "List ID:", in this case
"General Accounting Discussions ". See the
header of any email, which went through gnucash.org in the last years.

[GNC] Quicken running balances - available in GnuCash??

2018-04-07 Thread Billsy
Hi all,
This is a repost of an earlier query - I'd still like to switch to GnuCash
and Linux, however I have one stumbling block, so perhaps someone may have
some ideas for me

I currently use Quicken Personal, and use a budget report, which lists
weekly 
transactions, and a running balance of my cash account at the end of each 
week - that way I know exactly how much I have in the bank at the end of 
each week. (Amount is circled in red in the picture below).

When I generate a transaction report with GnuCash, the transactions are 
listed and totalled for each week, but I don't have a weekly cash position 
indicated, so although I know the total of all weekly deductions, I can't 
see a running weekly balance of my cash account. 

Am I missing something in the report options? 
Thanks,

We have this annoyimg prefix on Gnucash-de. And everytime you change the
subject, it gets inserted again:

[gnucash-de] Original Theme
becomes
[gnucash-de] More specific Theme; was: [gnucash-de] Original Theme
then user inserts it's own tag
[gnucash-de][SOLVED][gnucash-de] More specific Theme; was: [gnucash-de]

Ending with no longer showing the theme because of too many tags.

Re: [GNC] Finance::Quote Yahoo_JSON Alpha Vantage

You were right, a click on the link adds an underscore inside the link,
making it fail.
I am just surprised to see Alpha Vantage hard coded into the Quote module
for currency, since the stock lookups use seperate site specific modules.

Thank you

Re: [GNC] gnucash 3.0 installation

2018-04-07 Thread DaveC49
James,

The target will depend upon the distribution you are running. 
As Adrien has said /opt is one possibility. 

If you are running a version released by the Ubuntu distribution managers,
i.e. installed with sudo apt-get install gnucash, it is likely to be
installed in /usr/local. 

The advantage of using /opt is you can test a later release without
interfering with the distribution release and if you were to install the
distribution release it won't overwrite the version you have compiled.  I
never install from the distro so I normally install in /usr/local and keep
/opt for when I occasional work on the development version of gnucash

Also depending on where you have put the build directory for cmake the
../gnucash as the argument may be incorrect. If you have downloaded and
extracted the gnucash-3.0.tar.bz2, you will have a top level directory
gnucash-3.0 not gnucash unless you renamed it. This argument should point to
the top level CMakeLists.txt file which is in the gnucash-3.0 folder. 

If you create build-cmake in the gnucash-3.0 folder as the wiki Build#Ubuntu
page suggesst and then cd into it for the build then using ".." or "../" as
the argument to Cmake should take you back to the gnucash-3.0 folder and
Cmake should look for the CMakeLists.txt file in that folder. The other
alternative is to use an absolute path to the gnucash-3.0 folder.

One of the developers, Rob Gowin has suggested putting the build-cmake
folder outside the gnucash-3.0 folder to simplify specifying the first level
file for CMake. I prefer not to do this as I sometimes have a couple of
versions of Gnu8cash built and I prefer the build directory to be under the 
gnucash- folder so I can be sure which version i am installing.

If you check out the gnucash-Dev forum you will find a fair bit of
discussion there about buidling Gnucash-3.0. I am currently also trying to
build a working version on Linux Mint which is an Ubuntu 16.04  derivative.
John Ralls suggested posting build problems in the gnucash-Dev forum to me
because you will get feedback from the developers there.

Re: [GNC] Quicken running balances - available in GnuCash??

2018-04-07 Thread Christopher Lam

Hi Billsy

There's nothing quite like weekly running balances. But there's running 
balance after each transaction:


* Sorting/Primary Key = Date
* Sorting/Primary Subtotal for Date Key = Weekly
* Display/Running Balance = enabled

I believe this is the closest that can be produced from Gnucash reports.

On 08/04/18 08:06, Billsy wrote:

Hi all,
This is a repost of an earlier query - I'd still like to switch to GnuCash
and Linux, however I have one stumbling block, so perhaps someone may have
some ideas for me

I currently use Quicken Personal, and use a budget report, which lists
weekly
transactions, and a running balance of my cash account at the end of each
week - that way I know exactly how much I have in the bank at the end of
each week. (Amount is circled in red in the picture below).

When I generate a transaction report with GnuCash, the transactions are
listed and totalled for each week, but I don't have a weekly cash position
indicated, so although I know the total of all weekly deductions, I can't
see a running weekly balance of my cash account.

Am I missing something in the report options?
Thanks,

The error message about perl is normal if you haven’t configured online price 
retrieval.

A crash is worth a bug report, so please file one after running GnuCash from a 
command prompt (CMD or Powershell):
  "c:\Program Files (x86)\gnucash\bin\gnucash" --debug --extra
and running a report that crashes GnuCash. Attach the resulting trace file to 
the bug report, compressing it first if necessary.

Re: [GNC] fixed field width

2018-04-07 Thread David Carlson
Dennis,

It may look like there is a lot of  room on your display, but a lot of
users still have rather low res displays or they (like me) just like to use
strings containing more than 80 characters.  Two line mode is specifically
designed to show the notes field, so to move the notes to the first line
would render the second line useless.

I doubt that you would find very many users that would want to shrink the
description and notes both to half their size to squeeze them into one line.

Re: [GNC] Budgeting loans

2018-04-07 Thread Dale Alspach
I think something like the following will work.

You need to create two off-setting accounts: Mortgage Payable
(liability) and a sub-account Mortgage Payment (asset).
You would not budget Mortgage Payable, Mortgage Interest (expense) or
Mortgage (liability).
A typical payment transaction where the payment is $1000 = $200
principal plus $800 interest would be
Credit Checking $1000
Debit Mortgage $200
Debit Mortgage Interest $800
Debit Mortgage Payable $1000
Credit Mortgage Payment $1000.

If your lender has given you a schedule with breakdown of each payment
or you use schedule transactions then you may want to enter this as two
transactions.
Debit Mortgage $200
Debit Mortgage Interest $800
Credit Mortgage Payment $1000

Credit Checking $1000
Debit Mortgage Payable $1000

Re: [GNC] Budget Flow report does not respect Reversed Balanced Accounts Setting

2018-04-07 Thread D via gnucash-user
Hello,

I believe you are encountering 
https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=726674.

I do not know whether the thread to which you refer was talking about this bug 
or not, but 726674 is still open.

Pretty much everything about the budget features should probably be considered 
offered "as-is"; I don't know that anyone is actively developing this aspect of 
Gnucash, and previous inquiries indicate that it isn't high on any of the 
current developers' priorities.

Hi,

I am using version 2.6.19 on Windows 10 64 Bit.

My Reversed Balanced Accounts settings is Credit Accounts.

When I view my income in the accounts tab, it is correctly showing a
positive balance of £10.07. When I switch to the Reversed Balanced Accounts
setting of "None" then the balance shows as -£10.07. So far, so good. 

However, no matter what the Reversed Balanced Account setting is, the Budget
Flow Report is showing -£10.07 rather than +£10.07.

A note a previous post from 12 months ago indicating that there was a bug
that caused this behaviour, but the bug had been fixed. Yet here I am with a
more recent version of Gnucash and the same issue. 

Any ideas?

Thanks in advance!

We distribute GnuCash as an all-in-one installer for Microsoft Windows and 
MacOS, so missing symbols in shared libraries are legitimate bugs on those 
platforms while on platforms like Linux distros the same problem would be on 
the distro packager.

Geert and I (the principal developers) monitor both lists, so it doesn’t matter 
which one you post to with a problem like this.

This being a Windows problem, though, I need to check it on my Windows VM and 
that has to wait until tomorrow.

Re: [GNC] GnuCash > 2.6.16 Reports crashing

2018-04-07 Thread David T. via gnucash-user
John,

If the user is on Windows, could this be a matter of the "Initial Report Taking 
Forever" bug?

Re: [GNC] GNC Addition of Mailing List Subject Prefix

2018-04-07 Thread Amish

Even I feel it annoying and unnecessary.

Here is what w3c (World Wide Web Consortium) which develops Web 
standards has to say about adding subject in their own mailing list.


Source: https://www.w3.org/Mail/subject-tagging

   Subject tagging is not a reliable way to identify mail from a
   mailing list versus personal email, because if someone sends a
   personal reply off the list, they will likely not remove the list
   tag from the subject and the mail will get filtered to the
   recipient's list mailbox even though it was not distributed by the list.

   ... we would rather see effort invested in getting mail software
   fixed to do the right thing than provide workarounds that provide no
   incentive to do so


Also subject tagging may also break signed messages which work on 
subject header. (depending on how mailing list is configured)

I'd rather you didn't do this at all, I typically just scan down the
subject line of all the emails in my inbox and it's just annoying to try
and ignore the crap on the beginning of the subject line !!

Thank you Liz😊

Commonly, list prefixes are in square brackets to be more unique and make
it clear it's a prefix.

Any chance of changing them to [GNC] etc?

Thank you again!
Cheers...Steve

Yes, I already spotted that lapse and amended it.
