Re: [GNC] Reports not displaying.
Thanks. For others who might come across this thread and feel motivated to add to it, that's not necessary. As Richard Ullger reported back in October we know that the root cause is Nvidia screwing up their Linux drivers. Unfortunately a lot of distributions didn't get the memo about that and continue to create new packages with the broken drivers even though Nvidia has long since released fixed ones. It even bit Nvidia senior engineer Connor Hoekstra, getting a mention in his podcast (https://adspthepodcast.com/2023/09/15/Episode-147.html or https://adspthepodcast.com/2023/09/22/Episode-148.html, IIRC pretty near the beginning but I don't remember which one).

Re: [GNC] I'm getting started in Gnucash and want to list each item that I buy from one merchant

But be aware that if you compute sales tax on individual items, the total of the taxes you compute may be off by a penny or two from the tax your receipt shows for the transaction. These "rounding differences" are inevitable, as a current thread and many previous threads have discussed. It's mathematics, not any kind of software error. The only way to prevent them (if you want to prevent them, as opposed to manually tweaking the amounts) is never to buy multiple taxable items in the same transaction.

Re: [GNC] Bill total does not match real total

So the summary is, why would I think that one system could possibly handle all the regulations that incompetent and narcissistic bureaucrats could come up with?What was I thinking??? :-) This is equivalent to asking why we have independent countries, each making their own laws and setting taxes rather than a centralized world government. In the US, "sales tax" is not federal. Except in the sense of certain "excise taxes" we have no national sales tax. The problem is not that any particular state's sales taxes have bizarre regulations but that there is no reason why the regulations adopted in one state should be the same as in another. The differences are NOT because of incompetent/narcissistic bureaucrats --- and in any case, the bureaucrats of a state do not set sales tax regulations, the elected politicians do. But in any case, what I was really saying is that dealing with this issue is OUTSIDE the normal scope of a "general ledger" system. It is the job of a POS system to handle that and send a feed to "general ledger" with the transaction having the correct amounts. It would also send a feed to "inventory" to record the depletion of items (and "inventory" would then send a transaction to "general ledger" for cost of goods sold. Gnucash is a general ledger system, not a complete business system with "payroll", "inventory", "POS", etc. Or if for an organization, maybe also things like "pledge accounting" Gnucash does not have these partner systems. AFAIK no team in the open software world is trying to organize a "business system" project. BTW --- I am STRONGLY on the "modular design" side of that issue, so would want separate teams doing the components << the "business system" team would be in charge of making sure the pieces all cooperate, well defined interfaces, etc. >> Michael D Novack ___ 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.

[GNC] Max value during year
Is there an easy way to find the maximum value of an account during a given time period (such as a year)? I currently do: Reports: Assets & Liabilities: Asset chart: Options: Accounts: the account I care about Display: Show table General: Start and End of previous year (or specific dates); Step size: One Day and then scan the table for the maximum. ___ 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.
