[GNC] $0 total balances wrongly appearing on Balance Sheet

2022-05-31 Thread Fred Tydeman
In looking at the list archives, I see that this problem was reported back in July 2020. I did not see what version of GnuCash was being used then. I am running GnuCash 4.10 on Fedora Linux 35 and get the same results. One of the accounts only had three transactions: buy 1 unit, buy 1 unit, sell

This theory makes intuitive sense to me, but wouldn't explain why the behavior would change based on the "levels of subaccounts" control on the report. Is there any reasonable way for me to determine if there is some fractional quantity left? (I'm still seeing '0' even after decreasing the fracti

I am curious. Is it possible for this behavior to occur if 1) a commodity account has a balance of zero shares but a residual value because it has a unrealized gain or loss. 2) a commodity account actually has a tiny share balance or residual value below the threshold visible at the account disp

Sorry, the report appears to be working correctly for me on MacOS (10.15.6) using GnuCash 4.1. The 1st option should be the only one you need to toggle the zero balanced accounts from appearing. The 2nd option will remove just the zero figure but retain the account name if the 1st option is

I've encountered a bit of a Scooby Doo mystery, and I'm hoping someone can help me figure it out. My Balance Sheet report consistently includes commodity accounts with 0 balance figures for me, even when I've unchecked "Include accounts with zero total balances." Trying to reproduce this with a b
