GnuCash on the Mac doesn’t install anything. You drag the bundle to wherever you like, and you can have as many as you like. If you want to try a “fresh installation” (shouldn’t make any difference, nothing in the bundle should change with use) just open up the dmg and drag Gnucash.app somewhere

Certainly that is possible now. You can export transactions from a POS and import them to Gnucash. This can either be done on a per-sale basis or as a daily aggregate. Since it is possible to import invoices, the OP could do so as step one, and then record the payments as before as step 2. The imp

Multi column reports methodology?

Is there a simple way to generate a 13 column Profit and Loss and a 13 column Balance Sheet showing monthly movements? My apology if this question has been asked often before but being new I can't see the answer to what I hope is a simple question, with one menu item to action these two reports?

I thought perhaps the route to go would be create a new hierarchy template, but it seems that is not possible, at least from within the software. Then I looked at exporting and importing an account tree, but again, while export is possible, I don't see how to import a partial tree. Best of luck.
