This has long been an issue with GnuCash on the Mac, such that most of us have simply gotten used to it. I will add something to the wiki FAQ shortly. It has been entered as a bug (https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=761024 ), so it has b

GnuCash is fundamentally a double-entry accounting program. If you don't want to do double-entry accounting, then GnuCash is not the tool for you. There are not any global settings to change it to a single-entry system. My question to you is: Your suggestion of putting a liability accounts payabl

Thanks, John, but guess you didn't have a chance to read my entire post. I can't uncheck the box for "remember the pin in memory" when it is *NOT* checked to begin with! Bottom line, tell me what folders and/or files I need to backup (and restore as needed) that reflect my settings for aqbanking

Re: Unable to open 2nd set of accounts on one MacBook Pro

John, GnuCash on the Mac ALWAYS opens the last file it had open—even when you double-click on another GnuCash file. This is a long-known issue with how the Mac handles the GnuCash startup. File->Open will get you to your second set of accounts. David > On Nov 24, 2017, at 8:00 AM, John Night

Unable to open 2nd set of accounts on one MacBook Pro

I am treasurer of two quite different organisations. I have kept accounts for both using gnucash, but on two different Macs. Now I have only one Mac. Both sets of accounts are primarily held on a USB stick, one for each organisation. Why can I not open the accounts on the USB stick that used to

Password screw-up "magic fix"?

I've used GnuCash for a long time, have the current stable version, Windows 10. Question: Since Adam & Eve first danced, whenever I *accidently* hit "remember PIN" (something I would never do intentionally, but seem to do from time to time) when downloading transactions on a particular account, I

Hi Suresh, there is a good reason why you can not mix this types of accounts. There are 2 different dimenstions in accounting: 1. What is your position at a specific point in the time? Assets, liabilites, equty express this. 2. What is your motion over a period of time? Income and expense expres

Re: Unable to create liability account under expense account

You should talk to your accountant about how to set up your accounts to handle this type of transaction. Your proposed solution (a liability account under the concrete expense account) is not how I would do it, and I believe is generally not considered the proper method of doing it. Things may be d

Then I think you need to use Alphavantage. Take a look at the docs and the how to has been documented there. Or take a look at the archives over the last few weeks. Basic approach is to get a free API key from Alphavantage.co. Set an environment variable to that key. How to do this depends on
