[GNC] Custom Report

2019-05-09 Thread confused
Hello, I'm new to GnuCash.

Would anyone be able to help me with custom reports. I would like to
generate a monthly report to show my profit and loss. Is there a way to
customise the dates?

Many thanks!

I'm not at a computer right now, but I seem to recall that the Profit & Loss 
report does not have monthly breakdowns. You could copy the monthly data to a 
column in a spreadsheet in order to make comparisons. 
Each report has different options which are only availableafter first invoking 
the report. You should examine those.

The P&L (aka Income Statement aka (for a non-profit) Statement of 
Revenues and Expenses) is ALWAYS for an interval. You can choose the 
start and end date via Edit => Report Options


If new to gnucash I strongly suggest that for every report you choose to 
run you investigate all the report options available to you.


What gnucash does not provide (within gnucash) is displaying multiple 
runs of this report in parallel (to compare side by side). If you want 
that, I suggest exporting the reports and then bringing the raw reports 
into a document you then edit with your favorite full power editor app. 
I don't think of that as extra work because I am always going to want to 
edit before presentation to the board of directors. The CoA needs to be 
such that information that is needed for filings is available but that 
is NOT how the directors would want to see it. For example, "printing 
and postage" is a line item for the 990/990EZ but the board wants to 
know what the entire event cost, not how much of that postage. Wants to 
see how much made from selling tee shirts, not the "gross sales" and 
"cost of goods". Wants to see how much having an intern cost, not how 
much of that was reportable on a 1099-MISC and how much reimbursement 
for mileage. In other words, the level of detail different, so going to 
be editing anyway.

Sure, the button is there.  It's just supposed to close the tab, which
is what it does for me.

I still have no idea how it got to that.  As Geert said, that message
only appears once in the whole source code, and it's not from an
accessible function.

Re: [GNC] Open Bills Payable (and Open Invoices Receivable) Report/List

2019-05-09 Thread Adrien Monteleone
There isn’t a report, but there is a list.

`Business > Customer/Vendor > Invoices/Bills Due Reminder` will open a separate 
window showing a list of any that are open/due. From this window you can also 
process payments and view/edit the bill/invoice. Not sure if this will fit your 
screen or workflow, but I size my main window so that I can keep these two 
reminder windows open on the side at all times. (I also never close GnuCash and 
have it on a dedicated workspace)

Note, these reminders run every time you start GnuCash as well.

Adrien

Re: [GNC] Custom Report

2019-05-09 Thread Adrien Monteleone
Navigate in the Menu to:

Reports > Income & Expense > Income Statement/Profit & Loss

which will get you the basic report. ('Income Statement' and ‘Profit & Loss’ 
produce the exact same report - just different default names)

then on the toolbar click:

Options > General > Start/End Date

where you’ll see some ‘quick’ presets available like ’Today’ and 
‘Previous/Current Month/Quarter/Year/Accounting Period’

or you can otherwise specify exact dates.

*note, ‘Accounting Period’ is going to use the custom period you defined in 
your preferences. (such as for entities with non-calendar fiscal years, say, 
starting July 1 instead of January 1)

[GNC] importing invoices as paid

2019-05-09 Thread mountain
Hi, is there a way to not only import invoices but to also import data
indicating that they have been paid? Unfortunately I have hundreds of paid
invoices to import.

Re: [GNC] importing invoices as paid

2019-05-09 Thread Adrien Monteleone
If they are paid, you’d need to have the payment transactions imported as well. 
There isn’t any such thing as ‘paid’ with no actual payment. (as far as I’m 
aware)

I don’t know of a way to auto-assign the transactions as being applied in 
payment of any particular invoice once they are imported. You might have to 
assign those one at a time. (but at least you don’t have to create the 
individual transactions)

Perhaps one of the devs familiar with the Business Features can offer more 
insight.

Adrien

A question for ToddAndMargo:

I think this question was asked before but Gmail isn't letting me search
for it.
If you create a disposable copy of your data file and open it to your
credit card account and then fly over that Close button, what pops up?
Then, if it includes the word Archive, try clicking on it in your
disposable copy to see what happens.

Re: [GNC] Custom Report

2019-05-09 Thread Jimmy R via gnucash-user
Te easiest way is export account summery BUT html is only available, you can
drag the html in excel and easily copy and paste. Not as easy with the P/L
The problem with that account summery report you cannot select a month, date
range, etc in options.

I find it troubling that there is no monthly report for the year. You can
use a budget but you have to enter budget numbers for account totals to
show.

I understand there is a difference between xml and mysql fro generating
reports. I am peeking around a Jasper Studio again since my Point of Sale
software uses it but i do not have the time to learn sql queries.

It would be nice to alter the budget report just to show the monthly totals
fro the accounts and export it

Excel might be a problem, but LibreOffice has no issues either opening saved 
GnuCash reports, or importing them as plain text. (copy/paste also works) The 
only issue with doing comparative P&L’s in a spreadsheet is that each period 
needs to have all accounts visible so things line up easily, otherwise you’ll 
have lots of formatting to do.

And how would an account summary be the easiest way to accomplish a P&L? (you’d 
have to run one for each and every account) There’s already a P&L report and 
you can set whatever date range you like.

I don’t think so. You have to create a budget, but I’m pretty sure you don’t 
have to populate it to get actuals to be visible. I tried this not long ago.

Perhaps I’m thinking of something different, but I can run a budget report 
using just parent accounts and get monthly amounts. Could you provide an 
example of what you are looking for?

Adrien
