Which is exactly what it says on the dialog "Transaction Editor
Defaults", so that is the default value used when creating a new
scheduled transaction, it does not affect existing ones.

Re: [GNC] [GNC-dev] report

[Maf. King]

Dear Hilda,

you've joined the wrong list.  you've sent your message to the email list that 
discusses the low-level development of the Gnucash program.

"how do I" questions are best sent to thea user-level list, that I've copied 
this to.  Please remove the gnucash-devel email address from any reply.

I find that the Payable Ageing report  (under the   Reports menu , then 
Business section)  shows totals owing including VAT (very similar to GST)

the same is true in the  Bills Payable dialogue box (business menu -> Vendor 
section)

Hope that helps you look for the info you need.
Maf.

Re: [GNC] GC CTD lost saved reports

That did it, thanks.  Went to the .local and it had 2.4 and an empty

I was afraid of that. You may want to inform the author of that jar file about 
the changed locations. We have a wiki page detailing all relevant file 
locations here:

Sure, I can see how this would be useful, and could be implemented for a
subset of SXes where the values are pre-computed.  But what should it
display if there is a user-variable in the SX?  Currently, when an SX
with a variable fires, it pops up a dialog and asked the user to fill in
the variable.  But for your suggestion, you're asking to see the SX
before it actually fires -- so the variables aren't being filled out.

Alternatively, you can just tell the SXes to fire up to 300 days in
advance, but then they become "real" transactions and get harder to
hide.

Well, sure, because when you Export Accounts, there are no transactions,
so the transaction parser is never used on read.

A better question is, what's wrong with that transaction time and why is
the parser barfing on it?

Ah, yes.  Each SX may be set individually, because you may want them
firing at different times.

The global preference is the default for *new* SXes, but yes, you must
go back and "fix" all existing SXes.

By Q4 (hopefully Q3) I should be back to my own network and will be able

Hi Elmar and Geert,

Yes latest BackupGnuCash (1.3.1) handles all the default locations for GnuCash 
3.x Configuration files.

John recently changed the date format in Gnucash to no longer include timezone 
information, but gnucash-on-android still expects it to be there.

We got aware of this issue last week and John updated the gnucash side again 
to include the timezone information to accomodate the Android users.
